  Hi there,

  You can change your username from Account Settings, but the username dkeenan already exists on our system and belongs to someone else, so you will not be able to change to that exact username.

  Instead, you can consider just changing your public display name. If set, the display name will be used rather than your username as the author of your posts and comments, and as display names don’t need to be unique like usernames, it can be whatever you want it to be.
