I Can’t Change My Name on X—Profile Update Keeps Failing Every Time I Try

I'm seriously frustrated with X (formerly Twitter) right now. Every time I try to change my name, I get an error that says “profile update failed.” I’ve tried multiple times, thinking it might be a temporary glitch, but no—it simply won’t let me update my profile name.

What’s even worse is that there’s no explanation for why this is happening. If there’s some kind of limit or restriction, why not inform users clearly before they waste time trying over and over again? It’s completely ridiculous and unacceptable from a platform of this size.

I want X to fix this issue and let me update my name as I should be allowed to. Also, I ask that the app display clear messaging if there’s any restriction so users aren’t left confused. Please resolve this as soon as possible—I’m tired of dealing with this glitch.
