When I choose "Edit Profile", I don't see an option for changing username. Can you tell where can I change my username?

I don't think you can change the username you use to log into KnowYourMeme, but you can change your display name, which users view you as. All previous names are recorded when you change them, so say you change your name to a separate name, the original "markochan" profile URL still belongs to you if you search it up.

When you go to 'Edit Profile', type in a name in 'First Name' and click submit. You'll then have a different display name and that's what everyone is going to see.
I'll show you with pictures to see if it helps clear it up for you





It should be noted that there's a 20 character limit to whatever you type in, so be mindful of that. You can add an optional 'Last Name' if you'd like just by typing something there aswell and then submitting.
If you want to go back to your original username, just delete what you put in 'First Name'/'Last Name' and then click submit.

This ought to be what you're getting when you attempt to due the process. Does it appear differently for you?

If you're worried about "username" as in "login name" per se, you'd might want to contact an admin about that.
