It will not. Gerrit does not care (or even know) your Launchpad
username. The Gerrit WebUI identifies you with a unique OpenId URL
from your Launchpad account.

Unfortunately git-review's current mechanism for determining whether
your account is valid is by trying a test push for the repository
you're working in. Any condition which causes Gerrit to refuse the
push makes git-review think your username is incorrect.

A quick look in the Gerrit backend database tells me you've not
filed contact information at
https://review.openstack.org/#/settings/contact which means you
probably also haven't agreed to the Individual Contributor License
Agreement (and the openstack-manuals repository to which you're
trying to contribute requires those). Please follow the
http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#account-setup
instructions (including creating a Foundation Member account, making
sure you use the same primary E-mail address for that as your
preferred address in Gerrit, agreeing to the ICLA and filing contact
information), and then try your git-review again once that's done.
