Yes, you can change your cPanel account username. This feature is
not found in your cPanel because cPanel accounts are tied to the
username, your home directory, configurations, email, etc.
Please contact our support team for assistance if you would like to change your username. Also note that your username should ideally not exceed 16 characters.
Important: We need to warn you about possible issues which may occur after such a change:
- If you have a website which is using a database, the site's MySQL configuration should be changed to the new account username accordingly. It is usually done by editing the configuration file.
- The new cPanel username should be the same length or shorter in order to prevent MySQL from truncating the account's database names and database usernames.
- Also, an email account which has the same username as cPanel cannot be created.
