Suggestion: Allow Username Changes/Flexibility

Suggestion: Allow Username Changes/Flexibility

Issue: Would like a public username this is not my full name (due to link to Facebook) and/ would like to change the username I first registered with.

 

Why? I am highly engaged in social media online, but never use my full name for privacy reasons. Sadly, when linking my Facebook, I didn't realize my entire name would thus be visible. Because of this, I no longer share any playlists via Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, Tumblr, or Instagram. My personal connections on Facebook can find me, yes, but I have a larger community than what is limited to Fb.

 

What's in it for Spotify? Spotify is a great platform and I've been using the service for years!  I would enjoy sharing my user experience and playlists to continue to grow the community of users, but because of this privacy issue I do not. Essentially instead of seeing this as a social music platform I use it as a limited tool.

 

Anyone else? I would like to get this visiblie as I think it could be useful for many people. If you have an interest in this or a related idea, please comment below!

 

Thank you and appreciate you all!
