Thanks mate so if I change my display name people wouldn't see my username? Cos I see people's full usernames on their comments.

Most users haven't set a display name. Look at mine, though: You should see ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠 rather than Nemo. The former is my display name (emoji letters) and the latter is my username (plaintext).

Thanks Nemo that's even better! Now I get to play with names lots!
