Almost 20 years ago, I've got a steam account already. Somehow, I've lost the account-name, but I still see it in the friend list of my brother.

I'm quite certain to still know the password, but I cannot remember the account-name. Any way of recovering it?

MVP for reacting on this old thread.

I tried the calculator to no appeal. Sadly, as I've moved eight times (no exaggeration) since I've last used the account, I've thrown out all cds :-(

Damn, it's going to be tough.

Have you tried https://www.steamidfinder.com/ ? I don't think it would give more information than the calculator, but you can try.

What if you try adding the saving as a new friend? Maybe it will give some more information?
