    You will need a very good reason such as a serial killer on the loose and stalking you.
    Otherwise, just stop using the account that you have and open up a new one with your preffered name.

    How can I change my username?


    In most circumstances, this is not permitted.
    The only reason we will change your username is if it puts your privacy at risk. This usually means you've inadvertently registered using your name, email address or something that gives away your identity within your username.
    If you fall into this category, email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL] and request that it is changed, giving three alternative usernames in order of preference.

    Are you sure that that will be enough?

    I had a team of crack assassins chasing after me but the admins refused to change my username.
