To hide them, set
#pt-userpage, #pt-mytalk, #pt-preferences {display: none}  on CSS

To rename them, create Mediawiki:mypreferences as 'My Profile', same 
with Mediawiki:mytalk.

You can't change the URL from the UI (unless using a JS hack). Could use 
an extension to remove it and add another one or modify the url at 
content_actions.
