    Username Tips for Creators

    • Choose a name that works as a brand — imagine it on merch or a media kit
    • Avoid tying your name to one platform — 'tiktokkai' won't work on YouTube
    • Google your potential username to check for conflicts with existing brands
    • Shorter is always better for @mentions and word-of-mouth sharing
    • Consider how it sounds when spoken aloud — podcast hosts and collaborators will say it
    • Test it with friends — if they can't remember it after hearing it once, keep looking
