There is a plugin that will allow you to do it. I have seen this but have never tested. I'm of the mind just to create a new userid.

Its part of the groovy runner plugin, https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/x/_ACNAw.

As always test before putting into production.

Name yes, it's just a string.

Unique login id, no, because it's effectively a primary key, unique and distinct. You can of course, hack it in the database, if you know where to look, but that's very painful. Generally, if someone has a login and needs that changed, your only option is to create a new account and move stuff over to it.

The login user name comes from the user name you selected in the user creation. I believe it isn't possible to change it without using the database, I would create another user with the correct user name and delete the other one.
