judging by the example given by you, you want to change not the name of the user, but the name of the computer.
in the line you cited, victor@victor-HP-pavilion-g6-PC (by the way, a very common and even standardized indication of a computer пользователь@компьютер is a пользователь@компьютер . vasja-pupkin@mail.ru you ever wondered what, for example, vasja-pupkin@mail.ru ?) the username is victor , and victor-HP-pavilion-g6-PC is just the computer name.
You need to change the computer name in two files:
/etc/hostname/etc/hosts
in the second of them, this name will appear at the beginning of the file in a line of approximately the same type
127.0.1.1 имя the computer will then need to restart.
The current user name can be found, for example, in the following ways:
$ echo $USER $ whoami $ id etc.
By the way, what you noticed is called the command prompt and in the shells of unix-like operating systems it is determined by the PS1 environment variable
