 Hello @alfhen,

 Welcome in WordPress trac! I know that this ticket is quite old now but
 I'm having difficulties to reproduce the problem.

 Using `wp_insert_user()` without `ID` param and with `user_nicename` that
 already exists will create a new user with suffixed `user_nicename`.

 Using `wp_insert_user()` with `ID` and with `user_nicename` that's the
 same as the current user's `user_nicename` will update the user info
 properly. `user_nicename` isn't suffixed.

 In short, I can't seem to find a way to use `wp_insert_user()` that
 updates the an existing user that also suffixed the `user_nicename`. If
 you can give the exact `wp_insert_user()` code you use to produce the
 problem, it will definitely help.

 Thank you!
