  I need to change my username immediately. Somehow, (I assume by AutoComplete) my username is the same as (most of) my password. Please help!

  I don’t have a site linked to this WordPress.com account

  Hi there,

  When you change your username, you cannot go back. The old username will no longer be available for you or anyone else to use.

  Below is a link with detailed instructions:

  Hope this helps! :)

  Thank you, I did not realize you could change it so easily. It was greyed out because I had not yet confirmed my email address.

  Thanks!
