Hi Tikuli,
Changing the public display name will change your blog URL to ” tikuli.wordpress.com”. Changing the blog URL will affect some search engine traffic briefly, but will get back to normal after a few months.The old posts will not be affected in any way as they will be redirected to their new address. eg:- People trying to reach to https://tikulicious.wordpress.com/2015/06/08/devils-food-cake-layered-with-sweet-cherry-sauce/ will be redirected to https://tikuli.wordpress.com/2015/06/08/devils-food-cake-layered-with-sweet-cherry-sauce/ automatically. WordPress will take care of all the redirections for you.
If you are interested in changing the URL please find the instructions from the support article. https://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/ . Do read the instructions carefully and then proceed with changing the URL.
