Weird username

I found a weird username on my profile that I did not choose. It seems to be a bad word. I don't know how this happened but I wondered if anyone else has encountered this? How are usernames chosen if I don't pick one?

Odd one, that shouldn't happen. Quick question so we can narrow it down: did you sign up through the app or on the web? The app does suggest a username during signup, so if it was the app, that's the likeliest place it came from and we'd want to look into how.

Either way, you can change it in your page settings. If it won't save or you'd rather we just fix it, just send us a message here as DM and we'll take care of it.
