Hi NikoMZ!
Don't worry about it, when I see this, usually the data is still in tact.
Did you follow this article to do this?:
Change the name of your macOS user account and home folderOfficial Apple Support › en-us
If you didn't exactly, that's still okay, but just a few questions:
Do you keep a Time Machine backup? Or have sufficient data in iCloud??
What do you see in these two locations?:
System Preferences > Users and Groups.
Finder > Go > Macintosh HD > Users.
And also, what to you see after right clicking on each user in Users and Groups > Advanced Options? (You may need to first click the lock on the bottom to make changes).
Screen shots, or a description may help to figure it out, happy to help out.
