List of Contents
Unfortunately, you cannot change your Main Pawn in Dragon's Dogma 2 (DD2). Once you have created the pawn and have chosen them to be your companion during character creation, they will be your main pawn for your entire playthrough.
You can change a plethora of main pawn characteristics albeit limited to some degree to make sure your main pawn is still the same pawn you chose in the beginning.
The vocation of your main pawn is changed by going to Vocation Guilds in major towns or cities. The process is very similar to that of your Arisen - only in a different tab.
Your main pawn's specialization is changed by collecting and using Specialization Tomes in your journey. Beware though, changing specialization using tomes will overwrite the main pawn's existing specialization!
Barber Shops in major towns and cities allow you to change your Main Pawn's appearance. You can simply pay a hefty sum of money to change your hairstyle, makeup, and markings.
It is also possible to change your main pawn's overall appearance and basically redo character creation by obtaining an Art of Metamorphosis and choosing Modify Appearance.
The first barber that you will encounter is Clovis when you arrive in Vernworth. Her shop is found near the West Vernworth Oxcart Station so it's not easy to miss!
How to Get and Use Art of Metamorphosis
Unfortunately, you cannot change your Pawn's Name. Even though changing appearance somehow lets you redo character creation, this does not include the name of your Main Pawn.
In Dragon's Dogma 1, Art of Metamorphosis also allows name changes but in DD2, it is not the case.

Super bummed about this. It was a hard choice between 2 of my pawns and i decided to switch post game start. I spent all that time changing the appearance only to learn of this sad situation. :( *Creation cancelled*
