I have a custom URL for my personal page titled: facebook.com/my.name
.
When I go to change this custom url to be not my name (trying to evade employer search and e-discovery I guess), it says:
"There was an error while setting your username: Already has alias."
Note, I have already changed my profile name. Any ideas here?
I made sure my password is correct as well.

Someone posted the answer to this problem under a Facebook thread, I thought I would share what that person had to say.
This solution will only work for those who have accidentally set their vanity for their personal profile instead of their page.
