Instead of trying to change what you don't have why not embrace what you do have... changing names, number, etc isn't going to solve the issue. Here is some very basic info about 11 as a life path along with some color info and tarot info...
*********************************************************
Spiritual awareness and a drive to serve others altruistically.
If your Life-Path number is ELEVEN, yours is a Master Vibration number associated with spiritual awareness. Master Vibration people tend to possess an understanding and knowledge beyond others. As an ELEVEN, you are thought of as being on a higher spiritual plane.
ELEVENS tend to be very interesting people with much to offer those around them. They are intuitive, avant-garde, idealistic and cultured - extremely so. They are the visionaries. It's common to find an ELEVEN looking for understanding in life's mysteries. Their interests will be many. Socially, connections with others are highly developed. ELEVENS bring much to the topic of conversation and are excellent listeners.
An ELEVEN will expect much from themselves and from others. At times this can make them difficult to deal with. It's common for this Life-Path to have a lot of nervous tension. There can be mood swings and challenges with focus on ambition. At times actions can be impractical, as an ELEVEN is more of a dreamer than a doer. Key words/qualities associated with an ELEVEN Life-Path are higher spiritual plane, intuitive, illumination, idealistic and a dreamer.
The life purpose for an ELEVEN is to utilize innate skills of counseling and guidance. While you may not be a leader, much talent can show through in this area. Finding ways to release nervous energy such as sports and exercise can bring much relief during difficult times.
You have chosen a life of enlightenment and an interest in Alternative ways of living. You think beyond the obvious and are not satisfied with the mundane. Universal consciousness would be an inspiring concept as you may devote your life to the service of others and even humanity as a whole. It is through this care-giving that you have the inclination to become recognized and revered as an insightful human being.
The master number eleven indicates a need, for those who fall under its influence, to balance temporal interests with a strong natural attraction toward self-sacrifice and a giving of themselves for the benefit of others. Eleven is a transcendental number that relates to enlightenment and spirituality as well as martyrdom. The eleven tends to be someone who naturally uses his or her innate abilities to help others, whether that is through a life of sacrifice and giving, through the arts, or through a leadership role of some sort. The negative aspect of eleven indicates that a person who is an eleven may be so wrapped up in trying to “save the world” that their immediate relationships suffer from coldness or neglect. Another negative is that if the individual chooses to ignore his or her mission of seeking and sharing enlightenment, he or she may simply become entirely materialistic or uncaring in an extreme way. This number requires that powerful forces be balances, so as to avoid the extremes of martyrdom on the one hand and complete lack of care for others on the other.
IDEALIST, artist, celebrity, highly energized INSPIRATION, psychological, radical, sensitive The number 11 symbolizes the principle of enlightenment. It colors everything with drama, a visionary outlook, artistic sensitivity, and a sparkling quality. It is not truly practical, but its contribution is its unique perspective and philosophy which instigates new consciousness. Its energy is very high-strung, intense, mercurial, polarized (off an on), and subtle.
Gifts: Revealing higher truths, transformation, poetic interpretation, romance.
Challenges: Illusion, isolation, allergies, over-stimulation.
Personal Goal: Living the dream.
Fears: Drudgery, restriction, ugliness, boredom.
Succeeds as: Media star, poet, inventor, psychologist, minister, designer, society figure, beauty queen, occultist.
The life path color associated with number eleven is Silver. Potential: Idealism. It is unusual to find silver as the ground color, though it is frequently seen as one of the other colors in auras. People who have it as their ground color are full of great ideas, yet sadly, most of them are impractical. These people often lack motivation and become dreamers, rather than doers. Once they become motivated and find an idea that is worth pursuing, their progress can be a joy to behold.
Crystals are natural healers, utilizing energy to transform light into healing rays, becoming a medium or conduit through which healing passes. They are able to increase their personal, physical power to the point where they are able to cleanse minds and souls so that physical healing can follow. Their greatest challenge is learning how to cope with their gift of healing, and how to be themselves, since their natural inclination is to hide or protect themselves, by taking on other colorations, cluttering their energy field and potentially harming themselves.

Basic Tarot Story
The Fool is looking for a new path, a new aspiration and inspiration for his life. Sitting uncertain at a cross-roads, he notices a blind wise woman listening to two brothers argue over an inheritance. They have come to her for judgment. One brother has the whole inheritance, the other has nothing. "I ask that all of it be given to me," the poor brother demands, "Not only because I have a better right to it, but because I will not be wasteful with it, as he is!" But the rich brother protests, "It is rightfully mine and that's all that should matter, not what I do with it!" The woman listens, and then awards half of the rich brother's inheritance to the poor brother. The Fool thinks this only fair, but neither brother is happy. The rich one hates losing half his wealth, and the poor one feels he ought to have gotten all.
"You were fair," he remarks to the woman after they have left. "Yes, I was," she answers plainly. "With only half the inheritance, the rich one will stop being so wasteful. And the poor one will have as much as he needs. Even though they cannot see it, this decision was good for both."
The Fool thinks on this, and new insight on his own life comes to mind. He realizes that he has spent his life achieving worldly ambitions, physical goods, while leaving his spiritual self to starve, primarily because he didn't want to make the sacrifices necessary to feed his spiritual self. Now, he sees that this is necessary, the only path he has not walked, and one he must walk to regain his equilibrium. Thanking the woman, he heads out with new purpose. It is time to balance his own inner scales.
Description: The Strength card, depicting a gracious queen-like figure and a wild lion, shows that real strength has to be combined with graciousness and gentleness to become a force. It symbolizes inner strength, determination to overcome obstacles, self-knowledge and self-discipline, as only when we know ourselves and act in a responsible manner will we be able to deal with challenging situations and overcome difficulties successfully. Yet this card does not only represent physical strength, moral and emotional strength are included in the meaning. Patience, compassion, dealing with frustration, accepting of others, tolerating imperfection (in oneself and in others), all leads to being a complete person. The negative qualities of Strength include misuse of power, aggressiveness, and intolerance.
With Libra as its ruling sign, Justice is about cold, objective balance through reason or natural force. This is the card that tells the Querent that they can't keep smoking and drinking without consequences to their health. It is the card that advises cutting out waste and insists that the Querent make adjustments, do whatever is necessary to bring things back into balance, physically, emotionally, socially, spiritually. In a more mundane sense, this card may signal a court case, legal documents, and adjustments in a marriage or partnership. The outcome of all of these may not be exactly what the Querent wants, but it will be a scrupulously fair outcome. If the card is reversed, it can indicate bias, obstruction of the law, or legal complications.
I think Justice is a good card (as compared to Strength) to stand as the first of the next ten cards of the Major Arcana. The reason I think it right is because with it we move from the physical world (first ten cards) into the metaphysical world (next ten). When I look at Justice, I always see the two worlds balanced on her scales. "You've spent all your time in one," she seems to be saying, time to move into the other and balance things out."
One thing to remember about the Justice card is that it is not about punishment, good, bad, right or wrong. It is about adjustment. The sword suggests that sometimes this won't be pleasant. Justice pares things down with that sword so that the scales end up equal. The message is to do what's necessary, no matter how hard, how disagreeable, in order to gain, or re-gain equilibrium. It is not a nice card, but in its way, it is a very wise card.
