Go to Account Settings. Click on Edit to the right of Username. Choose the username you want to have and enter your password, then Save Changes. This can only be done once so make sure this is what you really want. This will be a permanent change.

The change of Username option is available in settings of Facebook.

But the problem is that you can change it only once in your life time and username must contain some part of your real name.
