This IS possible!

I had the same question as the OP......googled it, and came across this page and one from United:


https://www.united.com/web/en-US/con...ghtsearch.aspx

Relevant section:
Can I book a ticket for someone else with my MileagePlus miles?
Yes, you may request to have a MileagePlus award ticket issued in someone else’s name.

FWIW


EDIT: oops, I misread the OP's situation, and relied too much on google's search result. Never mind then. Two different things.
