Hi everyone,
It's been a long time, I'm back to work after a long holiday. I have one question to ask. I have different usernames for Gerrit account and Phabricator account . Will that create any trouble while contributing the code?
Best, K. Kaushik Reddy.
Its totally fine for the accounts to be different. (As long as you aren't intentionally using multiple accounts to confuse people, of course)
At worse, it might be a tad confusing, but that's totally ok. Putting a note on your user page listing all your accounts is a good idea to prevent confusion.
If you log into phab using your "wiki account" (e.g. via OAuth). You can still link your gerrit account, by going to your preferences in phabricator. This will make both accounts associated with your phabricator account.

Indeed. This If you'd like to do this, follow the steps in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Help#Creating_your_account

You can link all your accounts via your user settings on Phabricator.
Except for a little confusion here and there I'm not aware of any consequences of having different names on Wikitech (which includes Gerrit) and Phabricator. I happen to have slightly different account names myself.
