Reason: Username reveals personal information. It implies the last name of the user. Therefore, the privacy of the user will be made into the public. Which was not clearly realized that it will be made public until after making the account. User would would really appreciate the name change, as they do not want their name to be put out onto a page that is viewed by prospective families, and others.
