Many users confuse the terms Steam Username, SteamID, and Steam Account Name. Here's a breakdown:

• Steam Username: This is your public profile name and can be altered at any time.
• SteamID: A unique identifier linked to your account and part of your custom URL. To modify your SteamID, follow similar steps as above, but click/tap the field under "Custom URL."
• Steam Account Name: This is the name required during the sign-in process and is permanently associated with your account. Steam keeps track of your previous usernames for your friends' convenience.

Regarding merging Steam accounts with identical usernames, it's a no-go. Steam doesn't allow merging of accounts with the same username. More details can be found in the Steam Subscriber Agreement.
