Delete icloud email (@icloud.com)

The email associated with my Apple ID is a ProtonMail email.

I recently wanted to create an "@icloud" email, but i am not happy with the name I chose, so I would like to delete it. How do i do that?

You cannot remove or edit the iCloud email that is created with your Apple ID. You can add up to 3 alias email addresses.
