I want to play Pokemon go but I don't have a standard username I can use. I had one many years ago but nowadays that's taken everywhere and I never got a new one.
How can I come up with a username?

I'm extremely bad at coming up with usernames.

Are you 12?

Just make something up ffs. You won't get famous or special powers from a unique user name.

>>17361803
I'm more than twice that age.
Make what up? I can't just make something up, that's how bad I am at this.

I have come up with some things but it was very difficult and they were all taken and now I don't know anything else.
I don't want to just smash the keyboard because it's better if it's something that you can pronounce.

There is a link or button to go to a random Wikipedia page. Google can show you the way. Hit it until something comes up that you think works, then try entering it.

There will be a lot of taken ones, but one will hit eventually.

Another tip: a lowercase L looks like a capital i. I ofyen use this to get the name icarus even though it's taken. If you find one you like that starts with an i and it's taken, try it with a lowercase L.

Making usernames is easy, OP, you just gotta work off of a formula.The one I use is pretty simple.
>think of a noun you like the sound of. Objects work best.
>put an adjective in front of that noun, but it has to start with the same letter that the noun does.
>something like Furious Fridge, Manic Melon, or Frozen Fiddle

The only downside to this method is they can get a tad lengthy, but I find that they are always quite passable.

I once had an account on some random site with the username StandardToaster. And a quick 'what site was that anyway?' google search of it reveals over 8000 likeminded people.

Pick literally anything, just madlib it. Pick shit from roll-for-x things like pic related. Pick the two items closest to you. Throw in a related adjective if you like. Open up a book to a random page and point to a random word.

If it's taken, just spell it like a retard (Stand3rdToest4) or force a pun (StandarshBroster).

No one tries with usernames anymore, you can't afford to, make it as stupid as you need to.
