Usernames:
Nostr doesn't use "usernames" in the traditional sense, there can be multiple public keys with the same "alias"
To identify your key if you wish, use NIP05, it allows you to link a public key to a domain.
So for example there can be multiple public keys with the alias @jack but there is only 1 "jack@cashapp.com" for example.
Check out nostrplebs.com to read more about NIP05 and maybe get one too.
