How to choose the best username

  • In order to get the best, the username-your handle should reflect your real identity. I.e. Using your first and/or last name in your username will help others to find you, or “follow,” you on Twitter.
  • You can only use a combination of letters and numbers in your username, with one exception, the underscore.
  • Use birthday dates or other favorite names as a username
  • If the name is already taken try out different names and use underscores and different number combinations or use THE or IAM in front of your username
