Does Google allow me to change the username of my elementary-school aged gmail account?
- zerr 9y agoDo not tell them this, they will completely disable your account.
- balladeer 9y agoThey also say this: > Don't impose unreasonable rules for usernames On Google+ the selection of vanity URL is such a master stroke of tragedy that it hurts to think whether the restrictions are idiotic or just incompetent. They already have decided the first part of your username for you: <base_url>/FirstnameLastname........ Yes, You only get to choose the last part of your username - the first part is decided. Even though "Firstname, or "Lastname", or "FirstnameLastname", or anything else that you want to choose is available, you can't choose them - unless you are famous enough or possibly you know someone at Google. The latter, I believe, is also very useful if you happen to lose access to your Google account. After trying twice I just deleted Google+ from my Google a/c.
