I was looking to change my name for privacy reasons, the name I'm currently using is my public handle that I use for everything and I'd rather my friends not randomly find out that I post smutty fanfiction. Saw that you're supposed to be able to request a name change by going to account details but I'm not able to.
 
You should just be able to click on your icon in the upper right corner of the screen. Then click on 'Account Details'. Next to your username on the next page there should be a 'change' button.

Weird that the change button wasn't next to my username before but it was this time, thanks anyways.
 
Just posting here so I can change my username
 
I'll ask admins later. But maybe, yes, you should have settled on one before reaching a lock. Why would you even change 3 times?
It's embarrassing but I was going through a phase trying to create an authentic fanfiction name for myself. I've been reading fanfiction for 12 years and could never figure out a good name for myself until yesterday when I had help from a friend.
