    What makes a good username

    A good username is easy to say and spell, and tells a stranger nothing useful. Real names, birth years, home towns and pet names all turn up in security questions and account recovery, so they are better kept out of it.

    Pick a different username for accounts you want kept apart. The same handle on every site is the simplest way for someone to connect them all.

    Common questions

    Can it check whether a username is free?
    No. Checking would mean sending your ideas to each service, and this page sends nothing. Try your favourite on the sign-up page of the service you want; if it is taken, generate more or add a number.
    Should I use the same username everywhere?
    It is convenient, but it lets anyone link your accounts together with one search. For accounts you want kept apart, such as a hobby forum and your work profile, use different usernames.
    Why not use my name or birth year?
    Both are among the first things someone tries when guessing security answers or looking you up. A username that says nothing about you gives nothing away.
    Is my keyword sent anywhere?
    No. Everything is generated on this page and nothing you type is stored or sent.
