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?

Hello @ChristoZ. I'll be happy to assist you. 

 

I tried changing your name to the requested one but your name shouldn't have spaces or characters. ChrisZ already exists.

 

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Hi!

I was signing up to be able to post in the community last week and was doing so via my phone. I had typed "libraryzombie" as my username (which I use just about everywhere). Unfortunately, my phone glitched or the site glitched, and when my post got posted, it changed itself to "libray".

really need this username changed. I don't want to get stuck with a typo/glitch-name for the community, if possible. Can a moderator help me out with this?

Cheers & thanks!

Kelly (aka libraryzombie)

Could you please change my username from Rubel to Ruhel or alternatively if Ruhel is not available then I would take Ruhelking1. Like everyone else it was just a silly mistake.

 

Thank you so much.

I just entered my community name as StrawberryDragon. I double checked that it was right, then accepted. I watched the "n" magically fall off the end and leave me with a name I don't want. Yay!!

 

Any chance I can receive an assist? 😞

 

I'm thinking there might be a 15 character limit... if so it would be great for it to warn you instead of chopping off parts and leaving you stuck with the result. 😞 If this is what happened, SairaMegami will do if it's still available .

Hi Mods,

This seems to be the place to go to get usernames changed. I also misspelled mine (actually reached the 15 character limit and hit ‘enter’ before realising). Can I please change to NickyWanderlust? Your help would be much appreciated. 
current username is nicky_wanderlus (just in case for some reason it doesn’t show up here)
