Instructions for changing your username and display name on Twitter

After a period of use you want to rename on Twitter with a strange name, or simply using a name that is easier to remember is also very simple. Twitter allows users to change names without requiring a specified number of times.

Unlike on Facebook when applying the number of name changes and only being allowed to change names after 90 days, Twitter allows users to change their username easily, without restrictions. So you can choose for yourself a simple name, easy to remember or use a unique and strange username. However, you need to pay attention to the naming rules that Twitter has given.
