I wrote the wrong admin name when I installed CPG, an I wonder if it is possible to change it and how?

Use your database tool, such as phpMyAdmin, and browse to the users table.  Find your own entry, it should be ID 1, and change it there.

Back up first, in case it goes wrong.
It has been a long time now since I did my little bit here, and have done no coding or any other such stuff since. I'm back to being a noob here

if it's just a cosmetic issue (you can log in, but you don't like the admin name because it has a spelling error or similar), just log in as admin, create a new user and add him to the admin group. Then log out, log in as "new admin", check that everything works fine and then delete the "old" admin.
