Cpanel username is a required field in HostGator account. If you have forgotten your cPanel username, you can follow these steps to change it:

1. Log in to your HostGator account.

2. Click on “My Account” in the top menu bar.

3. In the “Account Details” section, click on the “Username” link.

4. Enter your new username in the “Username” field, and click on the “Update” button.

5. Click on the “Login” button to finish the process.

PRO TIP: If you are changing your cPanel username on HostGator, please be aware that this will also change your FTP username and email account username. Please make sure to update your FTP client and email program with the new username before attempting to log in.
