  Hello again, I just want to confirm that the site you need help with is crocodilestilettos.wordpress.com Thanks.

  If so, you can change your Public Display Name, which is what appears as author in your posts, by changing it here https://wordpress.com/me under “Public Display Name.” Remember to save your changes.

  Hello again, Thanks for confirming we are still talking about a site hosted here on WordPressdotcom. The information I gave you in my earlier reply is relevant.

  Just noting that regardless of your public display name, your username will always appear in our community forums.

  Let us know if you have any other question about this.
