How to change my user name? [message #1161251]

Eclipse User

I created a new account and want to submit a patch to CDT project. After I created my account, my user name was automatically set as rqiukdi which does not make any sense to me. I went to my account page but that page only allowed me to change FirstName and LastName. How can I change my user name?

Thanks.

Is it all similar to the email address you used (which seems like it might be derived from your name)?

I noted this too, immediately after registering. My last name was changed to my email address, minus @ and dots, and the username showing on the code review site is similar (first inital, then erroneous "last name"). I fixed the last name issue, but the username is still screwed up. Is it possible to change the username? If so, where is that option found?

There is a user name (for Gerrit) but it is generated from your first + last names, plus some random characters if it already exists. We don't have any means of changing it right now since only Gerrit uses the UserID.
