Hi, I'm trying to create a cPanel account and facing test word if a reserved username and cannot create a username with this name I need to know where this keyword is defined and how can I remove it?

 

Exact error: 

(XID zuja5c) “test” is a reserved username on this system. at /usr/local/cpanel/Whostmgr/Accounts/Create.pm line 640.

  It's important to note that you also can't edit that file, as it will be overwritten as part of the nightly cPanel updates.  More details on this process can be found here:
