Change username
-
I have accidentally changed my username. I would like to go back to’deborascarvalho’, as it used to be. Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Once you change your username you will not be able to change it back and the old name will not be available for you or anyone to use. If you just want to show your name differently please only change your Display Name. https://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/

This is so wierd! Is there a reason for that? The username was mine 5 minutes ago, I had a problem with my computer, it restarted by itself, and suddenly I have lost my username.
Anyone could re-configure it for me?! The old username is lost forever?! -

Hi there,
As stated in the support doc that @timethief linked to, it’s not possible to revert a username change.
To change the username you would have had to visit the Account Settings page, insert a new username, confirm it by typing the new username a second time to prevent changing it by accident, and click Save. There is no possible way that your computer restarting would have changed your username.
You can change your public display name at https://wordpress.com/me to change the name that will appear when you comment on a site, but the username cannot be changed back to what it was.
