  Hi there,

  My username is faded, so I can’t seem to change this and I do not want this listed on my blog. The username was originally selected in 2017?

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

  Hi houseofsenna,

  You can change your username, or you can change your display name, by following the instructions in this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/.

  Please be aware that if you change your username you will not be able to change back to that name, ever, and the name will not be available for you or anyone to use again.

  If you’re not 100% sure whether you might want to use your username again at some point in the future you could just change your Display Name for now. You can see also see how to do that in the guide I linked to above.
