  Hi there,

  I would like to change my username, as the username that is current, I did not choose and I’m not sure how it became that. When I go to my profile it says that my username can’t be changed? Please advise :)

  Thank you!

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  If you need to change your actual username, please follow these steps:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/#change-username
  
  I checked your account page, and the field is available for you to update your username:

  https://wordpress.com/me/account
  
  It sounds like you believe your username was something else before the current one. Do you think you may have another WordPress.com account with the username you want to change it to? If you want me to confirm, please provide the username; I’ll be happy to check.

  Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
