    So what's the regex to not let more users register with similar names and what I can change in the user url to show their profile?

    Even if I change the user profile to show their name and number will work? For example: domain.comm/member/***1245/ (which *** is the username of member)

    You would have to go through and manually fix existing names, asking the users what name they would like.

    I use this for mine: ^[A-Z0-9.]+$

    That only allows numbers, letters, and periods. No spaces, underscores, special characters, etc.
