Hi Aimee. You cannot change your username. All you can do is use a display name:

In Second Life, you have:

• A username, your unique Second Life account name that you choose when you register your account.  Once chosen, you cannot change your username.
• A display name shown to others inworld and on your profile.  You can change your display name as often as once a week.  In addition, you can always reset it to its default, your username.

Your username and your display name are totally separate.  If you haven't set a display name, then it defaults to your username.

Usernames

Your username is the unique account name or account ID you use to log into Second Life. By default, it appears above your avatar inworld and identifies you to other Second Life Residents. You can also set a display name that appears above your username.

Please see this KB for more information. :smileyhappy:
