    "User name" and "Username" are the same?

    Hi TheAbsol, my name is Jhon, and will be a pleasure help you

    No, "Username" and "xbox username" are not the same according to Xbox.

    Xbox usernames can be up to 12 characters, including spaces. However, usernames cannot begin with a number.

    Therefore, "Username" and "xbox username" are two different usernames, since one has a space in the middle and the other does not.

    If you're trying to change your Xbox username, but Xbox tells you it's in use, someone may already have that username with a space in the middle.

    To check this, you can try searching for the username with a space in the middle in the Xbox player list. If you find a player with that username, then that username is already in use and you will not be able to change your username.

    In this case, you will have to choose a different username.

    Best regards
    Jhon

    not since they changed the processes, more changes are coming too, all platforms using epics games are now using epics user id as it is their servers and their games, they are updating more and more to control it all.

    I am almost certain xbox username is whats used on Fortnite. Don’t think I’m wrong here as I have a different display name on epic that is overridden by xbox name.
