Answer 1

using Linq would be:

 listOfCompany.Where(c=> c.id == 1).FirstOrDefault().Name = "Whatever Name";

UPDATE

This can be simplified to be...

 listOfCompany.FirstOrDefault(c=> c.id == 1).Name = "Whatever Name";

---

UPDATE

For multiple items (condition is met by multiple items):

 listOfCompany.Where(c=> c.id == 1).ToList().ForEach(cc => cc.Name = "Whatever Name");
