Hello I am new and I really wish to change my nick name. After reading the warning thread about disclosing personal information it suddenly occurred to me that my nick name is my actual name and I don't want everybody to be able to see it. I didn't really know what I was doing when I wrote it in during the sign in process. I no it's probably not the same as allowing everybody access to my email add but still is it possible to change it?

Welcome to WP!

Unfortunately, you can't change your user name. The anti-disclosure thread specifically refers to physical addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, etc. The e-mail part is specifically to combat spammers/scammers who often contact by PM.

NinaH is vague enough.

They don't have both your first and last, at least. ;P
