Description
### What Happened?
When creating a user, it will autogenerate a username but allows you to change the username to whatever you would like. There is a validation for the username to be sure it is alphanumeric only but if a username starts with a digital it will fail validation.
For example User420 passes but 420User fails despite both falling under alphanumeric.
### Steps to Reproduce
Go through initial setup until you are asked to create an account. Try to set the username field to start with a digit.
### Expected Behavior
I should be able to create any username that is alphanumeric no matter the order of those characters.
