  Hi lifeinseriesofficial,

  I would suggest creating a new user account for your site with the username that you want to use and full administrator privileges. You can do this from Users → Add New in WordPress Admin. After you have done this you can login with your new username and delete the old account with the incorrect username.

  Just for future reference, your site lifeinseries.com is a WordPress.org site hosted by Bluehost rather than WordPress.com. There is some information about the differences between the two in this guide:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  This forum is for WordPress.com sites, and support for self hosted sites is available on the WordPress.org support forums:

  Please ask there if you require any further assistance.
