I would like to start using my full name as part of my online brand...
However, with HP, there's no way to change the username (and I understand the reasons), but would love to see the possibility to change the "display name" on the profile, like what wordpress does...

Start a new account with your real name, and then move your articles over one at a time. All you'll lose is pageview numbers, your monetary things will still be working, and Google will give your articles more attention because they'll be "new" articles. Good luck!
..and the age of your Hubs, and any backlinks they've earned.
Google does give brand new Hubs a "freshness" boost, but it's only temporary. In the longer run, Google respects age on evergreen topics. It also values backlinks, which take time to build up.
If Jacob's Hubs have only been in existence for a few months, and don't have many backlinks, he can easily move them. But if they're almost a year old and are linked, I wouldn't be moving them.

It's on the 3rd page now, going up and down that page.I've been making backlinks to it, around a dozen by now. It does not seem to be moving much. So, just how long does it take for backlinks to kick in?I...

What I found took me way outside of my comfort zone.In the past, I was given a monthly quota of articles to write. I was comfortable with this- just write the...
