There was another post about this before. Yes, you are right. Alter the database is about the only way to do it.

Someone could probably edit the profile page to where you can edit the username just like the password or anything else... I don't believe it would be too hard.

you could do that.. but i personally would only make it so that admin can do it.. i wouldn't want any of my users being able to change their username every 3 days...
