Plugin by W-Shadow

The plugin adds a new menu item called “Change Username” to the “Users” menu on the Dashboard. Clicking it will display a form where you can enter your new login name. All you need to do is enter the desired username in the form and click “Save Changes”. The plugin will then automatically perform the required database operations and let you log in with your new username right away.

Hi, i don't know what is the reason for developing such a plugin, because at user management you may freely change your password.
 
To be honest, I'd find it more secure using wordpress to reset my password than a third party plugin :-/
 
You can do it with phpMyAdmin.
If someone want to hack your wordpress, he knows that the admin username is admin by default.

You can change and the username and the password.

In my wordpress sites i have not changed the admin username :D laziness
