Changes in the Instagram name not only help in entertainment but are also a great way to improve the market for your business. Instagram is an effective place to promote your business and increase the visibility of your product.

In this article, we are going to talk about all the essential steps that need to be taken care of while changing the Instagram name. The difference between a display name and a username is also discussed, along with the essential factors that need to understand before you opt for changing the Instagram name of your account. 

Difference between Username and Name

The username and name on the Instagram account are different from each other. The username is an uncommon name mentioned in your profile’s top and its URL. When someone tags your account, the username is mentioned in the post. 

Having a separate and utterly different username is essential as it provides a different identity to your Profile. All the usernames on the Instagram application are different and unique from each other.

On the other hand, the name, or the display name, is mentioned in the profile’s bio. It is entirely different from the username and can change only twice within 14 days. 

It is up to you what name you wish to use for your Instagram account. Some people use their full name, while others mention symbols and emoticons for the display name.
