Your cPanel username is shown in cPanel itself.

1. Log in to cPanel from the Client Area: click Services > My Services, click your hosting plan, then click Log in to cPanel in the Actions menu. See Log in to cPanel and WHM from the Client Area for details.

2. In cPanel, look at the General Information panel on the right. Your username is shown next to Current User, for example exampleuser.

Your cPanel username is also in the welcome email we sent when the hosting plan was set up. You can find that email under Hello, your name! > Email History in the Client Area.
