Mastodon | UserName

Need advice
I registered this account not knowing this username would be visible to others. I know I can change it but when I'm logging into Mastadon it still shows this username with @ symbols after it.
Do I need to create a new account or can I change what follows the @ symbol as well?

Hi @egbaker,
Usernames cannot be changed, but display names can.
If you want a different username, you indeed need to create a new account with that username.

Thanks Jane, do I need to transfer any info to the new account or is that just for followers?
Also I'm trying to create a new Vivaldi Account and keep getting this error.

Depends whether the information in your current account is important for you. Check this page for instructions on data export: https://help.vivaldi.com/services/account/exporting-vivaldi-net-account-data/.Regarding the error. When exactly do you see it?
