  Is there anyway to contact wordpress, to remove a username. I have stupidly changed my username in an effort to change my url and now obviously cannot change my username back to the original one i actually did want, however i now have the url i want #frustrations

  Sorry, it’s not possible.

  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.

  Change Your Username

  You can change your Display Name to whatever you’d like and that will show up in most places, like posts, comments, etc. :)
