Is it possible to have two usernames for the same Active Directory account. Essentially we want the users to be able to login any of the 2 usernames (same account).

Do you mean have two users share the same profile?– wrieedxOct 12, 2016 at 0:20

Why would you want two people to have the same account using two different names?– MattOct 12, 2016 at 2:06

@Matt You're aware of suggested edits yes? Also, to which attribute[s] does "usernames" refer?– jscottOct 12, 2016 at 3:43

@jscott I am aware but I am also unsure what the Op is actually trying to do. If this is an XY issue then I don't want to obfuscate it.– MattOct 12, 2016 at 3:48

What do you mean by "username"?
You can only have one SamAccountName per account, but an account's User Principal Name can be entirely different than the SamAccountName and you can log in with either one.
