Not really. BUT you can make a new user name by following these directions:

1) Click www.bridgebase.com
2) Click the text reading "Click to play or watch bridge"

This brings you to the log in screen, but don't log in, instead,

3) Click "Become a member - free"
4) Fill out the form on the next page with your chosen new name and password
5) Check your email for a message from BBO with a link to confirm your registration.
6) Log on with your new user name and password

After you create the new username, if you want your masterpoints and BB$ transferred from the old account to the new account, send email to support@bridgebase.com.

When I registered I input my username(which unusually is my real name)in lower case yet it appear on the BBO play site in uppercase. Why; How do I change it to lower case?

Whatever you type into the Username box when you login is how it will appear during that session.

After you added a new username, can you still use the old one on occasion?

Yes. I know a few players with several different accounts. Just change the name in the Username box. If you use the same password and store it, you won't have to change that box; otherwise you have to enter the password attached to the relevant account.

Obviously, you do not inherit any stars or numbers or whatever that were attached to the previous account.

You can transfer any remaining BB$ to a new account, but only do any such transfer once every 6 months (IIRC).
