How can I remove the original user name that was entered at installation time for Windows 98 and the Microsoft Office software?

The Windows 98 information is stored in the system registry.

For a safer method than using regedit, you can use this utility to change the information as desired.

For Office 97, I have not been able to fully eradicate the original user without completely un-installing Office, and re-installing it.
