Username

I mean, it's boring not changing name soo i suggest that we can change username every 1 MONTH ok bye

NO bcause if your name if scratcher123 and you change your name to dog123 the person invites your old name that is scratcher123 it will invite you because you have an old name.

8.1 Changing usernames
If a user could change their username (or even set a certain “nickname”), this could be very confusing for the Scratch community, especially for those following that user. In addition, this would make moderation of the website more difficult because it would be harder for the Scratch Team to keep an eye on what a user may be doing. The Scratch Team has allowed username changes only on very rare occasions, such as if the username contained inappropriate content or personal information. Generally, the Scratch Team does not change usernames on request (including for reasons such as “I do not like my current username anymore”).

Username

We do not plan to add the ability for users to change their usernames, sorry. See the list of rejected suggestions.

However, because of the way that usernames are stored on the server, changing the cases of letters in your username (for example, changing @Za-Chary to @ZA-CHARY) is NOT rejected; you can discuss it on this topic.
