A workaround since you cannot change the letters as JE points out.

Use row 1 for your titles then select A2 and WindowFreeze Panes so row 1 is
always in view.

ToolsOptionsView. Uncheck Row and Column Headers if you don't want to see
them.

Place your Column Names in Row 1, then start your data in Row 2. The (A, B,
C...) names cannot be customized.
