  Hi, I’m just starting to get the hang of using WordPress today, and I accidentally changed my username from @classicallycarrie to @classicalcarrie. I’d really like to be able to change it back, in order to maintain consistency between my blog, email and social media accounts. However, WordPress is not allowing me to do so. Is there any way you can help? Thank you!

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

  Unfortunately, once you change your username, the older username is no longer available :(.

  However, you can change your display name back no problem.
