Perhaps I'm simply overlooking an option, but it appears that at this point there is no way to change your public username. As a person that frequently makes mistakes when typing this can be a little frustrating as the additional 'R' in my username was not intentional. A minor complaint, but one I think should still be fixed.
I'd greaty lappreciate the option to change display name.
I had no idea that they had forums on "D&D Beyond" so I thought it was just going to be what the system referred to me as, not something displayed to random people haha
I suspect that the user name is the "unique identifier" id that the back end database uses for your unique record. If that is the case and and what the pivot table is identifying you as there will never be a way to change that
That being said, I have no idea how they designed the back end of this

Seeing as though they require you to sign into twitch, they should be using that information in the database and possibly use your twitch id as the unique identifier.

When I was creating my display name, I did wonder about this. I was hoping it would be modifiable.

I'll jump on the bandwagon as a lowercase letter snuck into my name.
Same here, please provide a way to change display name, or at least warn that it is permanent if not.

There definitely should be a way to change your display name.
LOL if they used username as the unique ID, they're doing it wrong :)

Yeah... had I known my entire name wouldn't have shown, I would've put in something else. :(
Was this ever resolved? I'd love to be able to change my name, it's not even the full version of the name I wanted to input. It's missing an S!
