Depends on what you’ll be using it for. ie: ‘UrGranny’ could be fun for games but it might not work as intended on OF.
How do I come up with a good username?

“UrGranny” would definitely work for OF.

Naming things is the hardest part of everything.
That’s why I’m never going to have children.
Chunk@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Just pick the 15th most common name of the previous year. Then your kid will be fine.
Turun@feddit.de 11 months ago
This is legit a really good move. Not too common, so you need a nickname because there will always be five children with the same amen on the playground. But also common enough that they will very rarely have to spell it out.
iamtrashman1312@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Just name your kids after your
richestfavorite relatives and wait for that sweet sweet inheritance dosh to come your way

a cool 3-letter username can be neat
Found out when I tried to get a domain name for my initials. Very fucking expensive.
axe@lemmy.world 11 months ago
It sure is.
lapislazuli@sopuli.xyz 11 months ago
Just don’t add any random numbers to the name, which I see you haven’t done, so I think you’re good.
Harvey656@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yeah, everyone hates random numbers… right?
SolOrion@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Just toss some stuff you enjoy together. It’s not like you only ever get one- I’ve had a few over the years.
Mine is just a combo of two mythological figures that also have to do with stars/outer space. I like Sci-Fi, and I like mythologies.
Baku@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Yeah, this. The 2 usernames I currently use both include types of Japanese mythological creatures, and before that I used basically whatever was on my desk with some random numbers
SolOrion@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
I originally tried to just use Orion, and it was almost always taken.
So SolOrion was originally a fallback choice that just kind of took over.
Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
One more vote for mythological inspiration!

My nickname got me ‘holly bell toad’. My name got me ‘wacky officer’.
I think I’d take wacky officer honestly lol.

Froggy prophet.
PotatoKat@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I dig my result and it will be my future username for something one day
Bruce_Wayne@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I will save mine should I ever become a vigilante or something like that.
jasep@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Usernames aren’t good or bad. It can be “you” or it can be anything. Just follow your heart or your gut.
ProvokedGamer@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Thanks I’ll follow this advice

What’s wrong with the one you made this post under?
ProvokedGamer@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Nothing, I just want another username that I use to separate my personal accounts (like discord, Snapchat, etc.) from my online accounts (lemmy, Reddit, etc.)
nocturne213@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Use bitwarden’s username generator.
llIlIIllIlIlIllII@lemmynsfw.com 11 months ago
I went with something that would be annoying to type. You’re welcome!
qdJzXuisAndVQb2@lemm.ee 11 months ago
You evil genius. I’ve been just keyboard mashing for recent usernames, but I like this version.
BanditMcDougal@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Provoked Baller is pretty baller. Are you asking for a friend?
Blizzard@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
In that case it could be Provoked Gamer’s Friend.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 months ago
Or possibly Provoking Gamer
ProvokedGamer@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
I wanna have two usernames, one for personal and one for online so I don’t want people to be able to google search my username and see everything. I do like this username though lol.
morphballganon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Use something that puts a silly picture in the head of whoever reads it.
AnIntenseMoist@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Or a weird concept.

Yep. Tv, movie, music or game references rarely goes wrong.

You don’t.
0x30507DE@lemmy.world 11 months ago
A hex number that is meaningful to you.
Or just find a D&D name generator and use that, idk.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 months ago
Combine your pet names and be sure to make it look extra special with the “display name” field on your profile.
