To help keep up with name changes, is there any way on a users profile there could be a box that when you hover over it with your mouse, it displays their previous username(s)? Or some little add-on that would serve the same purpose.
I think this would be a nice feature.

If you hover over the name of a person in the forums then it will tell you there previous names so i don't think there is any need to have it on there profile too.

This feature came in when the do-it-yourself name change function got added a little while back, and works for name changes made since then. It doesnt work for earlier name changes.

I dont really see the need for anything else.

I believe it can only be changed once every 3 months.

Six months now. You can change it now, but once you do, it cannot be changed until six months passes by.
