[NTLUG:Discuss] change a username

I set up a username wrong, such as "abcdefg" when the user would prefer 
"acdefg".
Can that be successfully changed by editing /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, 
and /etc/group, and changing the home directory name?

find . -type f | xargs file | grep -i text | cut -f1 -d: | xargs grep "..."
