ChangeShortName
If you're new to Freemacware.com and like what you see, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed or signup for our emails at the right. We'll send you one Mac freeware application every day. Thanks for visiting!
Whenever you create a new user account, you’re asked to provide your full name and a “short name”. The short name ends up being the name of your home folder and an internal identifier for your account. Unfortunately, the short name can’t be changed through System Preferences like other account information. But ChangeShortName can do it for you. So if in the excitement of installing your new Mac you ended up with a short name you now regret, use this freeware app.
*Be sure to read the included instructions since this is a pretty big deal for your system. As always, backing up your Mac is a good idea.
