How do I change my username on Stack Overflow?

Asked 4 months ago
Changing your username on Stack Overflow requires you to access your account settings. First, log in to your Stack Overflow account. Once you are logged in, navigate to your profile by clicking on your profile picture or the user icon in the upper right corner of the page. From there, look for the option "Edit Profile" or "Edit Your Profile." Within the profile settings, you should find the option to change your username. Please note that username changes may be subject to certain restrictions, and there may be guidelines regarding how frequently you can change it. After making your desired changes, be sure to save your updated profile settings. If you have any difficulty or need assistance, checking the help center on the Stack Overflow website can provide additional resources and information.
