Display user profile url by name instead of ID

I am Newbie. I'm trying to return a view of member profile

At the moment, the user profile is accessible by its ID, like so

profile/7

I would like to access it through the name that I've created

profile/John

this is my route

Route::get('profile/{id}', 'ProfilController@tampilkanID');

this is my controller

public function tampilkanID($id)
{
    $auth = Auth::user()->id;
    $users=\App\users::all()->whereNotIn('id',$auth);
    $tampilkan = Users::find($id);
    return view('tampilkan', compact('tampilkan', 'users')); 
}

and this how i call it in my blade

 @foreach($users as $user)
           <tr>
               <td><a id="teamname" href="{{ url('profile',$user->id) }}" target="_blank">{{$user->name}}</a></td>
              </tr>
 @endforeach

thank you

Just Customise you RouteServiceProvider as Like below :

public function boot()
{
    parent::boot();

    Route::bind('user', function ($value) {
        return App\User::where('name', $value)->first() ?? abort(404);
    });
}

or

customise your route key in model.

For eg :

/**
 * Get the route key for the model.
 *
 * @return string
 */
public function getRouteKeyName()
{
    return 'name';
}

Route :

Route::get('users/{user}', function ($user) {
    return view('user.show', compact('user'));
});

You can use laravel Route Model Binding.

What is Route Model Binging?

Route model binding in Laravel provides a mechanism to inject a model instance into your routes.

How can I use it?

Pass object rather then id like 

Route::get('users/{user}', function ($user) {
    return view('user.show', compact('user'));
});

In your User.php define getRouteKeyName then return whatever you want as a route

public function getRouteKeyName()
{
    return 'name'; //this will return user name as route 
}

so your route will be users/name

For more information have a look at laravel documentation https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/routing#route-model-binding

try this:

Route: 

Route::any('profile/{name}', 'ProfilController@index')->name('profile.index');

Controller: 

public function index(Request $request, $name)
{
    $user = User::where('name', $name)->first();
    if(isset($user))
        return view('tampilkan', ['user' => $user]);
    return "user not found!"; 
}

Blade: 

@foreach($users as $user)
    <tr>
        <td><a id="teamname" href="{{ route('profile.index',['name' => $user->name]) }}" target="_blank">{{$user->name}}</a></td>
    </tr>
 @endforeach

Suggestion:
if you're doing this, you should also set "name" column to "unique" in users table in order to get exactly one user each time and not confuse users to each other.
