"A Google support page in Hindi says the ability to change your Gmail address is on the way. Your old address would remain active as an alias on the account, and all your data would stick around, unaffected. The support page (translated) says that "the ability to change your Google Account email address is gradually rolling out to all users.""
"Google hasn't made a formal announcement about the change. The English version of the support page still says you usually can't change your @gmail.com address. Up to this point, Google has only allowed address changes for non-gmail.com addresses. Engadget reached out to Google for confirmation. When the feature rolls out broadly, you'll change it through your account settings."
The ability to change @gmail.com addresses is gradually rolling out to users. Users can replace their current @gmail.com address with a different one while the old address remains active as an account alias. All account data and settings remain unaffected by the address change. Historically, Google allowed address changes only for non-gmail.com addresses. The English-facing support information still indicates that @gmail.com addresses usually cannot be changed. The feature is accessible through account settings under Manage your Google account > Personal info > Google Account email. Availability is being rolled out gradually, so the option may not appear for all accounts yet.
