Im  not really a frequent flyer, what im doing now is just a favor for a close relative of mine who is a little tight in money and is traveling to a wedding,

But the truth is that i did wanna attend the seminar I just couldn't push it in to my schedule.

Don't do it.
It's not fun to be pulled off a flight for a stupid $75.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

If name on ff account matches pax name,  I wouldn't be worried.

Wouldn't worry that much if FF matches Pax name and it's an established account.

I will want to change the itinerary below to a RZE-FRA-NYC return in First Class on LH for MArch 24.

Will the change trigger a reprice?

I know nothing is certain at this stage.... I'm looking for opinions

well if it's worth for you the risk of paying full fare and the embarrassment of being pulled off the flight in front of all other partners, than by all means, go ahead.
