  Hi there,

  This is taken from the support page:

  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.

  This is the link where you can read more about changing your username:

  Thanks

  No, it didn’t! There are no rules without exceptions! There must be room for mistakes.
