To be able to just ssh hostname instead of ssh benjamin@hostname for instance.

Specifying the last name seems appropriate for possible machine multiple users usage such company servers which happened at DFINITY, even if in these cases I do not choose my username in general.

While precising the last name can be heavier, I think it is more appropriate.

However, have to make sure not to break anything when doing such a change. As far as I know I can't break important stuff, especially as I do not propose a significant service in production as far as I remember.

In theory it could be dangerous to some extent in public space for people to help identify me through my device or the other way around but let us accept that.

The Ask Ubuntu comment 1072117.

Despite modifying symlinks .{ecryptfs,Private} (and associated permissions), Private.mnt, /home/benjamin{,_loison} I am unable to rename my user correctly. However, I am able to revert my failing changes.

Should experiment and document step by step in a virtual machine.

Should first verify being able to proceed on a Linux environment without home encryption.

Should give a try to:

sudo usermod -d /home/benjamin_loison -m benjamin_loison

usermod --help | grep -w '\-d'
Output: 
  -d, --home HOME_DIR           new home directory for the user account

I had to modify on LemnosLife VPS /etc/pam.scripts/ssh_alert.sh. Hardcoding the UID may be less user-friendly and not necessary as I do not plan to modify my username in the forseeable future.

The Ask Ubuntu answer 1105522 leads to a login loop, even if try twice. Maybe because I forgot to edit Private.mnt. Now on my Debian 12 GNOME Pegasus Linux Mint (trust) Virtual Machine Manager virtual machine it works fine.
