Hey there! 👋

Thanks for posting in the GitHub Community, @Syeda-Somiya-Tasnim ! We're happy you're here. You are more likely to get a useful response if you are posting your question in the applicable category. The Accessibility category is a place for our community to discuss and provide feedback on the digital accessibility of GitHub products. Digital accessibility means that GitHub tools, and technologies, are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them.

I've gone ahead and moved this to the correct category for you. Good luck!

Hi @Syeda-Somiya-Tasnim

A couple of months ago I've changed my GitHub username and profile description as well, the first couple of days when searching my profile via Google it kept showing my old one with the old description. I don't know exactly the reason I guess that the search engines need a little of time to update everything, so I'd tell you to wait 2-3 days. Afterwards you'll surely be able to find your new username on Google.
