If you are a newbie and are wondering how to change the user name and display name on Twitch, check out now!
Twitch allows you to change your username to something else if it is available. Although, you can only change your username once every 2 months. So it is best that you change your username if you are sure about it because you won’t be able to change it again before 60 days. On the other hand, you can change your display name any time you want, there’s no time limit for that.
What happens when you convert your Twitch username
Your existing channel URL will not redirect to your new name. This means that your followers might have a hard time finding your streams. You'll need to share your updated URL so that people can find your streams.
Your ad revenue may be delayed. If you're a Twitch Partner, your revenue will not be impacted, however, any ad revenue you make on the day of your name change may be delayed.
You won't be able to change it again for two months. You can only change your username once every 60 days.
You can't escape timeouts or bans. Changing your username does not remove you from channel or community timeouts or bans.
