Unfortunately, it is not possible at the moment.
The URL in each user's profile is the user's name.

The option would be to change the URL to the user ID. But for that, it would take many changes in the core and also in plugins.

Maybe this answer from Pupi might help:

Does the URL really need to be changed? It's not very important in my opinion. I read the linked answers and I think op is asking something else. At the moment, repeated users who sign up by Facebook login get "John Smith 1" automatically assigned as username and display name.

Is that demo any different than core Q2A? I tried to create two users with the same display name but it's not possible.

@Ronlaw Yes, it is latest code from Github(v1.8), which is not in production.

Changing "Full name" doesn't change display name. Am I supposed to change another field?

Yes. Display names (Full name in profile page) can be repeatable.But the username must be unique.

How is that done? I didn't find it in control panel.
