Have you read this thread?
No you can't edit it, that is why paypal say this >>
Once you create your PayPal.Me link, you won’t be able to edit it. So choose carefully!
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Hi Kernowlass,
Your advice on this forum, which you have reiterated time and again, is not helpful.
We realize we've made a mistake. We know, as you keep reminding us, that when we chose our URL, that we received a notice that said "Once you create your PayPal.Me link, you won’t be able to edit it. So choose carefully!" And we have indeed read this thread, though perhaps not all 22 pages of it. There are obviously enough of us, however, that have been put into a tight position by this policy which doesn't allow us to ever edit our URL, that we feel it is worth our time to come here and ask whether or not a solution to our problem might not be on its way.
In my case, I did indeed check my PayPal.Me link twice and three times, and it was correct. What I didn't realize, however, was that this link was the one permanent link that would always be attached to my PayPal account. I thought I would be able to add other PayPal Me links in the future for other fundraising campaigns. This problem, which is obviously very common among PayPal users, has most definitely not been resolved.

I really don't understand this
we are in 2020 and with the new great technology we can not change the payment link whats this policy, they should change this is so bad from my point of view, if you have a business or something and want to share the link its better to have change 1 or 2 times or once a year at least to change the name on the payment link in this way its bad.

For me, I chose my married name, never anticipating I would get divorced. I do NOT want to use a name that associates with my exhusband. Paypal get on this. Let us change our .me names.

The original post requesting this feature is from 2015, by this point it seems pretty clear to me (albeit rather frustrating) that PayPal have no intention of changing this, and adding the capability to change one's PayPal.me URL. I've seem people comment stuff like "This is why they say to choose carefully." and other sarcastic unhelpful stuff, however, there is more than one reason that a person may have chosen carefully but now need to change their URL.
A legal change of name for example, due to divorce, marriage, sex reassignment, or any other legally recognised change of identity.
People don't necessarily think when they make their account that they may get divorced, and frankly, I just don't think Paypal give a **bleep**.

I’m going to lose $42.24 from Backit (ePN) because I didn’t know what I was doing and my funds are on hold to a PayPal.me that DOESN’T EXIST and I can’t change the link I set up to match it and get my money. Backit is saying they can’t help because the funds were already withdrawn.

Dear Community,
Does PayPal.me release the Url already taken by a closed account?
If yes, what about the grace period?
