Changing a username
Except under very specific conditions, the ST will not change usernames. There is no built-in way to do this on Scratch, and that's intentional to avoid potential confusion.
Your best bet is just to create a new account.

snipYou forgot that most of the time Scratch Team changes a username, it's because the user had personal information in their username.

I know a scratcher who went through the process. I don't know if that was a rare case or it's more common than it seems.(#5)that's actually a situation i was talking about in a previous post but decided it was too specificAnother common scenario is gender dysphoria (when you feel more like another gender than the one you were assigned at birth).snipYou forgot that most of the time Scratch Team changes a username, it's because the user had personal information in their username.

We're getting off-track.
If your username contains personal information or causes you gender dysphoria, you may be able to request to have it changed.
You can contact the Scratch Team here to make your request.

Nope, you can't unless it's under specific circumstances. It looks like your best bet is to create a new account.
