Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

Since the name has a good meaning, there is no need to change it. Simply ask Allah for forgiveness and He will forgive you, and keep the name because of its good meaning. It is also best to show this answer to an imam and see if he approves of it. He may also suggest doing something extra, such as performing a new naming ceremony. If he suggests that, then perform it and inshAllah you can then keep the name with your heart at peace about it.
