This is a common problem and threads already existing with the same issue. I can only suggest changing your computers name to change user name as I beleive this will KO your character.

I have to change my computers name to change user name?

Your player profile is linked to your pc name, so you have to create a second profile with new name. Then you can delete the other.

So I have to make a new user on my pc?

I was stuck in the ocean, dead, but alive, for several days. I'm in the middle of a thesis so I rarely have time to Alpha test. I eventually got out of the loop by crawling to shore and falling to my death. And then being pummeled to death, after death, by three random players with crowbars and shovels.
