You can prevent users changing their URL:

From
https://wiki.mahara.org/index.php/System_Administrator%27s_Guide/Clean_URL_Configuration

 If you wish to stop your users from editing their own urls, set
$cfg->cleanurlusereditable = false; in config.php.

They can still change the URLs for their portfolio pages, but not the
URL of their profile page.

I am not aware of a way to prevent changing the username for the manual
registration / internal authentication.

Were it a possibility for you to use LDAP etc. for authentication
purposes?

Title:
  Restrict username change if user accounts are manually created

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  An option to disable the username and URL change (in the user's
  setting), if the accounts are manually created per institution. The
  main purpose is to maintain uniformity across the institution. Like in
  our instance, the student university registration is used as the
  username and the link (with clean URL enabled), so a uniformity is
  maintained as these links are shared...
