Why can’t I change my Facebook username?

If you are unable to change your Facebook username, make sure your username meets the following requirements:

Your username should be unique. If someone has already taken the username, you cannot use it for your Facebook profile.
Facebook usernames can only have alphabets (A-Z), numbers (0-9), and full stops (.). Any other special character cannot be used.
Adding capitalization and full stops does not make a username unique. For instance, abcd, ABCD, and Ab.CD are also considered the same username. So you cannot create a username impersonating someone by just using capitalization or adding full stops.
The username must have at least five characters.
