Eventually there could be a system similar to twitter .. where the handle can't be changed by the prefix can be .. such as Alice@steemit could become bob@steemit.  Skype also does something similar.

Yeah, I didn't realize when signing up (with my real name) that this would become my public username. Now I am wondering whether to ditch and restart from fresh.

Same.  I tried starting over with a new sign-up; however, it would not let me when I got to the stage of entering my cell phone number, saying that the number was already in use.   Haven't read  any more current posts yet as to whether or not there is a way around in order to create a username with some anonymity, but would appreciate some guidance if this is now an option.  (Thanks in advance for any help!)

If comments can be edited—because the edits are on the blockchain—why can't handles?

I'm glad we can change it on our blog page, but the new feature is fairly worthless when the old name shows up next to comments, *etc*.
