Give a big round of applause to Warmain over on reddit, he found a workaround that iPhone and Android users can use to change your Origin account name quickly and easily, without having to use EA support. It does not break any rules: in fact, EA programmed it themselves, they must have just forgotten about it.
If you download Scrabble Free for iPhone or Android (made by EA), you can log in using your Origin account. Then, use the Edit Profile menu under Options to change your username. As long as the username is available, you can instantly change it right there, free of charge. This changes your entire Origin account: if you log back in to origin.com, or open up the origin client on your computer, you will see that your username has been changed successfully.
Android users: after closing the keyboard, the "Save" button might still be disabled. This is a known bug: just press the BACK button once and it will go back to normal.
