Username has many important qualities, it instantly represents you. If you join a social networking site, then you need to have a cool username to gain focus and visibility. Username should be creative, unique and should be able to represent you in all means.

Consider Twitter for instance, people look at your username before looking at your profile, so it should also attract users to your profile to become popular on social networking sites. For email you have to choose a simple and short username such that people can remember it easily.

Think creative when you are choosing a username, try to be different at the same time. So how can you be creative and unique? Well here is how!

• First thing to remember is others need to remember your username, so keep it short and cool.
• Misspells have a great impact and look different from others. For example: you can use krazy instead of crazy. But too many misspells spoils the beauty of the thing.
• Using too many numbers and special characters is not advisable. You can use one or two numbers like your birthday at the end of the name e.g. krazy11
• Most of the sites do not accept special characters in the username field so check for its availability first.
• As microblogging is the hot trend, people can write you short messages up to 140 characters only. So keep your username short to save characters.
• Your username should not be a tough twister and it should be easy to pronounce so that you do not find it difficult to tell others.
• If possible try to include your first name in the username so that people can easily find you.
