> [@ChanTechSolution](#): > > put the steps out for everyone There are no steps to put out. Usernames can only be changed by moderators manually. DM if you want yours changed. Minimum length of new username is 5 characters. Of course, no change to “Admin”, “Cardano Foundation”, “Charles Hoskinson”, … ---

Hi @Napoles , I wonder how I could move foward with the username changing process. I am operating a cardano staking pool [CSPHD] and would like to advocate it through my username. In addition, my current user name is some what reflecting my true name, which I want to anonymize. Thank you. ---

Hi @Andrew_CSPHD, Sorry for the delay in my reply… I understand why you are making the change and it seems fair to me because there are many users who do so. So, specifically, what username do you wish to have… “Andrew [CSPHD]”? Best regards. ---

Hi @Napoles , Yes, the one you propose sounds good. ---
