that's why I always use my full name, address and social security number

someone already thought of xxx_NiggaGayFaggot_xxx

anon we might not know each other and live on opposite sides of the globe thousands of miles apart but when we raise our heads we see the same sky and stars

Completely unique username I've been using for over a decade that is never taken anywhere unless I made an account before and forgot about it

Username is taken

Complete bullshit, it has to be bots farming accounts

just come up with something original
like 'fart_knuckle'

This username is already taken.

Honestly with this shit what fucking annoys me is when it's obviously the case that a platform manufactures a person.
Like, nobody here is retarded enough that blue haired faggot was the first person to pick up the name "ninja" on twitch and become popular at the time he did?

I love that Switch lets you change your username whenever you want.

view that user's profile

last online: 20 years ago

Pretty much what I did and I kept it all this time because it's always available in every game. Because games force you too have a unique name now days.

DildoFingernailClippings007

You must be trying poe2. Refunded when I couldnt get names ive been using for 30 years online, clearly isnt worth it

I wish MMOs gave me the choice to name my character some time after creation.

Really nice friend on steam

Almost daily asks and says he hopes that I had a nice day

Likes to play games with me and some other friends

Really positive all the time

Shows me kinda gay little drawings from time to time that he's worked on

Don't hear from him for a couple days

Don't hear from him for a few weeks

It's been months since he's vanished now

Make a random but unique and not really gibberish sounding character name 10 years ago on wow

Use it as my username since then

Never gets taken

close friend suddenly goes offline for a 2 years

we would always play statecraft and aoe over MSN

sorry bro my pc broke and my family was too poor to buy a new one

literally what one of the best Smash Ultimate players in the world did, who was also a fan of Full Metal Alchemist

I mean he also used Linux so that probably wouldn't happen

game that doesn't even need unique usernames enforces username uniqueness

why do they do this

Most name indexing guides first lay out making a list of unique usernames to attach users to, rather than indexing them by some alternative form of ID.

use my full real life name

"This username is already taken."

usually I just do

usernameWasTaken

Lmao same.

have a great name that combines both an obscure reference to something cool and old only true gamers would recognize and is also a personal reference to a group of people I used to game with over a decade ago

use it for everything

pissed off a bunch of fagzillas on discord who have nothing better to do than try to stalk me everywhere

now I need to come up with a new one to evade them

You know it's the most annoying shit.
There's that one faggot the Deltarune guys are talking about that somehow disappeared without a trace and only a handful of people even remember me
And yet I got still got fags pissed at me in specific in 2014 for making fun of them for pretending to be old fags in one of those stupid "Vanilla TF2 Real Oldfag TF2 Is Super Serious" servers

nah not passwords, I'm not that stupid

Such is life as a 4 letter username ancientfag

no one, and i mean no one had my name. i registered it on multiple sites and i didnt have to add random numbers or letters. Then, all pf a sudden, its taken on every new platform im on.

i fucking hate these bots and copy cats whp cant make up their own name.

Not for nothing unless your passwords are straight garbage that's still kind of a bad idea because you may have left behind a footprint that people could vaguely guess what kind of password you'd make.

same. ive used the same name on every game and website for 25 years because no one else ever takes it. kind of a curse because now doxing me is incredibly easy from my tag being on hundreds of website thats had some database leak at some point

BASED

I've used the same name for 15 fucking years if some retarded chinese bot took it I'm just not gonna play your game.

God damn Indians.

Worse case for me is finding edgy cringe post on some forgotten forums using an archive database but otherwise there isn't much to dig through. I don't even use discord where all th3 mentally ill fags live.

Use common username all the time

I like it though, I don't like being recognized.

Are you fucking serious? I know nobody else who is also named Jeremiah! How is this possible?

it was the booze not my weight

Or you made it and forgot about the account.

If I want to be Friend of the Clinton's kill binding one day and Oscar Meier Wiener playing my ass off the next I should have the right to.

youremomspussy

No I just saw your username in a game or forum somewhere and liked it enough to steal it.

devs make me change my name because its “offensive”

name your character

name is already taken

thinking of a new name for the next 30 minutes

googling references and words to make sure it has a good origin that fits the character

finally come up with something I like and start playing

come back the next day

"wow this name actually sucks"

back to making a new one and repeat the process

I really miss Trannysecret, Sexualvirgin, and CatgirlERECTION from my Planetside 2 days. Thankfully they still allow names like DancingIsraeli2001 and ThrobbingFutanariMember.

there's only one other John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt, damn that man!

Same shit happened to me, but the guy also took my name and went into the forums role-playing as me. I wasn't active at that point and the guy wasn't malicious for what I saw so I did nothing, but that was still pretty fucking weird.

you can google my username and find everything from cringey mid-2000s forum posts about anime to my real name, high school, university, and my old address I haven't lived in in like 10 years

Heh... the forum I used to visit is long gone. I deleted every posts on gamefaqs. Geocities is dead. A social media platform before myspace was shutdown

I lucked the fucked out. although there are some posts on gamefaqs I can't get rid of like when someone mention my username

there are people ITT right now with usernames older than people legally allowed to post here

I have been using the same username for every game but luckily i was smart enough to use random names in forums. Though i also use this name in my steam account and i do not remember if i said something retarded in the steam forums.

I did this to my new Gmail account because I wanted the shortest possible username that is 6 digits now

set Username to "His mother"

Go into an old shooter with a killfeed

"Jonnny2009 IS DOMINATING His mother"

Never gets old.

I remember once fucking up a skyrim workshop modder's comments section in a similar way when he replied to me and my username was "The nude running man", and he decided to @ me in the reply.

When that $100 ring came out the memes were funny since everyone playing saw it.

Did this as well

Just a variant of my actual name but spelt differently

somehow never taken in anything else I sign up on despite only being 7 letters

actually had people in OSRS compliment me on the name a few times

Feels so fucking good

How to get an idea for a gamertag name?

I did this only with Star Wars: Galaxies

take the suggestion from your xbox live username when you're 12 and remove the number

run into the guy who has your desired username ingame

this actually happened to me

*gameyoureallylike*freak27 for example pikminfreak27

My gamertag is a randomly generated name i got when i created a google play games account back when i was 8, and i have been using that in every game since.

why 27?

I like the sound of that number.

I use vogon names they are never taken.

I've run into people with the same display name as me in TF2.
I got really confused and thought people were hitting me with the youtube.com/watch?v=o4o8h3izy60 when I connected to a server and my name was <Name> (1)

When I was young creating usernames I settled on the idea that "Adjective verb" or "Adjective Noun" is the best because when someone was killed in Halo2 it would say "you were killed by "Stupid Fucker"

Rusty Whale, Giant Kicker, Crusted Sandwich

Nickname your friends gave you.
Failing that, the most profane/disgusting name you can get past the filter.

this happened to me recently because i made like 100 accounts with the same password and they all had to change it because it was considered a common password

I had a name like that then blizzard banned by account that I've had since 2005 when overwatch came out. Still pissed about it till this day.

Just use xXx_Sephiroph_xXx42069

they sound like bot names

At least you went out like a hero.

jewhater666

jewhater667

jewhater69240

jewhater 69421

...

jewhater81894298

I just think of something that fits the setting and than pronounce it with a heavy down syndrome filter. Like cat=Khed or lamp=Lemb aso.

IMG_4125.jpg - 2048x2048, 334.77K

Being fair that being the way they name bots/fresh accounts is because it was a common way of making usernames

there were over 6 millon jewhaters? that's not possible, it can't be right...

Hi

I just pick the same username with a 1488 at the end, works every time lol

seek help

I'd say nice try, but he's still not online.
That also wasn't nice at all :(

All games should do what Discord did and append a random number to the end of everyone's username. That way, nobody is given preferential treatment.

I have over 50 Roblox accounts with usernames along the line of pic related that I use alot and they rarely get banned

Roblox acc.png - 915x796, 176.18K

god so many names you cant use anymore nobody used to be bothered by

DildoFaggins

Why are you afraid of just appending numbers to your username? Nobody gives a shit.

Imagine how many other people say 1488

If your username has

lowercase letters only
numbers
_ -
xX
zZ

you are retarded

I adopted the name of a giga niche anime that nobody remembers from 2009 back when OVAs were waaaay more common.
And it's always available. Hehehe

adding numbers is an admittance of defeat.
you couldn't figure out a unique name and it also looks awful.

what's wrong with xXcum_shot-nigger!faggotZz

or what steam does. everyone has an auto-generated ID # and you can use whatever name you want

admission of defeat*

username that I made for life is because i misspelled my favorite Pokemon

Lmao

At least for me my main ones have gone like

Styled after favorite animal

Two favorite vocaloids with favorite number

One of the names from above with adjectives

Random name that came to me in a dream

Pun based on IRL name

Just "red pikmin" with an image of a red pikmin

Various bird themed names

Also if there's a profile bio or something like that then I will probably default to a Fesh Pince quote. I didn't even notice I do this until I was looking over some of my accounts recently and noticed most of them were just shit like "pizza hut in the garage"

nobody uses xX_Faggot_Xx anymore. this isn't 2003

he isn't xXx_Battosai_xXx

ngmi

using the same username for every account

Surely Anon Babble doesn't actually do this right?

Start naming things in general if you want to get a feel for making good names. You don't have to be a dude that refers to all of their shit with names like a goober or even remember them, but names are not nearly as definitive as words and you just need to recognize when you managed to capture some sort of personality with a name you made.
That's just a general tip that helps with just about everything creative. People just get mental blocked when coming up with names because usually you don't think about it ahead of time and they tend to be more or less a permanent online moniker so they don't approach with an experimental headspace.

My most used name came from me making random parody names playing Jackbox continuously making my name even more vague and nonsensical as to what I was parodying that it just ended up being a nice completely unique name out of context. Coming up with nonsense and attributing meaning to it later is important to the naming process because names don't inherently mean anything unless you intentionally choose something pre-established. Even just moving letters around to create a new sequence is enough, especially if you're creating random bullshit that gets close to the vague feeling you want then just modifying it slightly to sound like a real name

what is the most common username you see nowadays? before it was any of these

Cloud
Sephiroth
Naruto
Sasuke
Elite

Jose
Hernandez
Rodriguez
Herras
Manny

this username is already taken

haven't thought about a username in 15+ years

That's exactly what I did around 20 years ago when I first came up with my current usual username, but it is occasionally taken already.
Luckily it's easy to come up with alternate spellings.

saying this while posting tranime

i stole a guy's name that i played with but stopped talking to and kept using it for like 8 years before i switched to something else, we have really similar tastes and it probably got him at least once or twice
