(After checking in the Your Profile screen) That seems about right. It's not that *you* cannot change your user name, no-one can. It must be by design.
If it really bothers you, create a new account. Make sure you don't pick another useless screen name.
You are correct Jongware - you cannot change your user name on the forum. Can't really create a new one either since it is tied to your AppleID....you would have to create a new AppleID....

Oops. Well, there is a good life lesson for the OP in this.
Something like pressing delete, "Are you sure you want to delete?", YES and then expecting "Are you really sure?"
I have reported your post to alert the community hosts. Hopefully they will contact you soon.
đ - exactly!!!
But as etresoft has indicated, the hosts can help. It's just not something you can do yourself!
