Almost guarenteed you have to create a new account. The only other possibility is to e-mail Sun and if you have a compelling enough reason they may allow you to change your account. I highly doubt your reason is that compelling, so just make a new account.
It's not you have anything invested in your current account.

Yes, you will have to create a new account.
If you want, you can transfer all your Dukes to me* and then when
you create a new account I will transfer them back... BWAHAHAHA

You can bank with this bank - "Bank Of Quest". You must have heard about this bank. You can deposit your dukes in "Bank Of Quest" for which you would receive 30% interest. No bank would offer you 30% interest.
public class ScreenNameChanger {
public static String substitute( String name, String src, String dest ) {
if( name == null || src == null || name.length() == 0 ) {
return name;
}
if( dest == null ) {
dest = "";
}
int index = name.indexOf( src );
if( index == -1 ) {
return name;
}
StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
int lastIndex = 0;
while( index != -1 ) {
buf.append( name.substring( lastIndex, index ) );
buf.append( dest );
lastIndex = index + src.length();
index = name.indexOf( src, lastIndex );
}
buf.append( name.substring( lastIndex ) );
return buf.toString();
}
public static void main(String [] args) {
String oldName = "chrisanderson";
String newName = "mynewniftyscreenname";
String name = "My name is chrisanderson.";
System.out.println(substitute(name, newName, oldName));
}
}
Wait, we're talking about Java, right?
