How to generate username candidates
Type the keywords you have in mind, separated by commas or line breaks, choose the combination rules and press the button to get a list of candidates at once. It helps when you are signing up for a new service, naming a game character, or picking between several handles for a team account.
Candidates are built from three ingredients. A number between 100 and 9999 can be appended, a short word such as neo, lab or zone can be appended, and two of your own keywords can be joined together. Turning on separators inserts an underscore, a period or a hyphen between the parts. With only one keyword the pairing rule cannot apply, so a number or word rule has to be enabled as well.
Within one list each candidate appears only once. With few keywords and few rules the total number of possible combinations is small, so you may receive fewer items than you asked for, and the count shown is the number actually produced. Spaces inside and around a keyword are stripped so the result is usable as a handle straight away.
The tool only builds names. It does not check whether a handle is free on any service, so run the availability check on the sign-up page itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. It only builds candidate strings and never queries any service to see whether a name is already taken. Copy the one you like and run the availability check on the sign-up page itself.
Yes, and they are combined exactly as typed. Keep in mind that many services accept only letters and digits in a username, so adding an English keyword alongside gives you more usable options.
No. Each run recombines the parts at random, so you get a fresh list. Within a single list duplicates are filtered out.
