Comment:

 I believe this needs to be reopened. You should be able to change the
 username in the settings. In my opinion the username and nice name should
 be separate. I do not believe this should be in plugin territory, unless
 it is made by wordpressdotorg or wordpressdotcom. Plugins are exploited
 left and right, so it doesn't seem logical to keep this in the plugin
 territory, since it is editing a core part of WordPress.

 So many people have the username admin and don't know how to change it.
