About the home folder’s name
February 13, 2006
Each user has his or her own home folder named using the short user name for the account. The short user name for a user cannot be changed. Do not change the name of a home folder.
If you want to use a different short user name, you must create a new user (this requires administrator privileges). You can then move items from your previous home folder to your new home folder if you wish.
If you have accidentally changed the name of your Home folder and your desktop looks different or you cannot find your files, you need to change the name back to the original name.
