Destiny Name... Problem?

There is not much to it, I think when I originally logged in way back in 2016 when my account was created, it automatically set my name to Guardian 1262, and when I was looking at the page about changing the name it says it cannot be changed as it is 'set when it is created' although I'm confident I never chose Guardian1262. At the same time it says if it was profane it mightve been blocked but Im also confident I didnt set it as anything bad so Im literally just wondering if i can manage to change it now, 6 years later lol. if not no biggie its just stupid that I gotta get bullied by my friends on other platforms that all have good names set and mine is guardian 1262 lmao

    Hey there. After the Bungie Name changes went live mid-2020, your in-game name becomes set as the platform name that you first log in with, I assume that's your Steam account. The new Bungie Name system doesn't support most special characters and also applies a name filter, looking at your profile I assume it's the former issue, as there are some characters in your Steam name that are not appearing properly. That is why you've been given a default name. There is not an option to change your name at this time but a name change option will be added relatively soon, 'at or around Witch Queen's launch is the current estimate.
