  That’s odd. Have you changed your username before?

  This is the guide

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/
  Once you change your username you will not be able to change it back and the old name will not be available for you or anyone to use. If you just want to show your name differently please only change your Display Name.

  it won’t let my even type a new one.
