They rarely put effort to change a persons name , like very rare unless it reveals personal info out in the public , best you can do is ask a mod & usually mods never respond to name change request  Maybe if you're lucky someone will change it .

Details separate people.

We only change the names of accounts under special circumstances, non of which are met here. Do not create another account either with a new name, as that's not allowed.

Maybe not, but if it is discovered, the new account will likely be terminated.

I think it's reasonable. Especially if he's going to abandon his old one at least for the most part. If he's going around and liking his every post then there might be a problem.

Dexter Blue guy got his nickname changed. It was a letter or two that he had got changed.

 

So something as trivial as changing a letter or two = you can do it, just depends on how the moderators feel any particular day.

 

The only reason you do that is because you are fond of your post count and your perceived online rep.
