    Hey there!  There isn't going to be a good way to handle that without renaming the old account.  Since it's the developer account would you just be able to rename it?

    I can rename the dev account but how will that affect the databases?  What I mean is if both accounts right now have DB's named accountname_db1 and I change the account name of the dev account to newaccountname will that change the db to newaccountname_db1?  If not, then how does the server handle it if there are two databases both with the name accountname_db1?

    When you update the username in WHM >> Modify an Account, there is a box that is checked by default that lets you update the database prefixes and database user prefixes.

    so that work gets handled automatically for you.
