Eight steps to a name you will still like in five years.
A gamer tag, a creator handle and a work profile need different tones and have different length limits.
Cool, cute, aesthetic, funny, fantasy, dark, nature, space, tech, gaming or professional. Your username is a first impression.
Aim for 6 to 15 characters. Under 15 fits X and Snapchat; 12 or fewer also fits an Xbox gamertag.
Skip your full name, birth year, school, street or city, especially on public and gaming accounts.
0 and O, 1, l and I, and double underscores are easy to mistype when someone searches for you.
If you have to spell it out twice, people will not find you. Read it aloud to a friend before you commit.
Use Check a username to confirm it fits each platform, and shortlist two or three variations in case it is taken.
Using the same handle across platforms makes you easier to find and harder to impersonate.
Small changes that keep the name you love. Check a username suggests these for you and shows how many platforms each fits.
| Try | Example | Platforms | Why it works |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add โtheโ, โitsโ or โrealโ at the start | TheCosmicFox, itscosmicfox | TheCosmicFox: 13/13 | Feels natural and is very common on Instagram and TikTok. |
| Add a short tag at the end | CosmicFoxHQ, CosmicFoxTV, CosmicFoxGG | CosmicFoxHQ: 13/13 | HQ suits brands, TV suits streamers, GG suits gamers. |
| Add a separator | cosmic_fox, cosmic.fox | cosmic_fox: 11/13 | Underscores work on most platforms; dots work on Instagram, TikTok, Discord, Snapchat and YouTube. |
| Double the last letter | CosmicFoxx | CosmicFoxx: 13/13 | A subtle change that still sounds the same. |
| Swap one word | StellarFox, CosmicLynx | StellarFox: 13/13 | Keeps the vibe with a fresh pair. Lock a word with the name field and regenerate. |
| Add a meaningful number | CosmicFox7 | CosmicFox7: 13/13 | A lucky or favorite number is safer than a birth year. |
