Disable ability to change or pick username

Is there a way for me to disable people from being able to select or change their username? I have a bunch of users that are creating usernames like "hey" or "me" etc.

In the FC backend settings go to "Privacy" and there's a toggle switch for that.

David ForeΒ Awesome, thanks David! I think I read somewhere that it defaults to their first/last name correct? Do you know if once this is enabled an admin can still change the username if need be?

Bob

David ForeΒ Well this is interesting. That is already unchecked in my settings, so I wonder if FC is just making up usernames? I swear one was like "hey" the other was "bob" etc.

BobΒ I don't know exactly how it works, as I've got it turned on in my Community.

Bob

David ForeΒ Gotcha. I guess I'll have to keep an eye on it and do some additional testing.
