Misspelled my Community Username

ANSWERED

When I went to post my first post in the community forums, I accidentally misspelled my username (it's supposed to be Death, not Deat). The page that prompted me for a username in no way made it clear that it was not editable and there was no confirmation dialogue, so I had no idea at the time what I was entering was perminant. 

Is there anyway I can get my username fixed? Is there a way to contact Fitbit support to have it fixed or am I stuck with a misspelled username for the rest of eternity?

@AndreaFitbit @MatthewFitbit  or other moderator - can I please have assistance in changing my display name in the forum? I created my account today but realized I chose the wrong username. I contacted Fitbit support and they said I need a community moderator to change my name for me.

My username was saved before I finished typing it. It should be KaterinaBallerina NOT KaterinaBallerin - how on earth do I change it? Also, my does my profile when I login still sat Kat L. and what is the difference between these two usernames? Please update my one above

Community forum usernames are limited to 15 characters, which is why your name got cut off. If you'd like to change it to something else, just let us know.

 

Your other username appears on Fitbit messaging, with friends on the platform. I know it's a bit confusing - a different username is needed for the forums so that every user can be distinct, with no names repeating.
