If your real name has been taken on Twitter, YouTube, FB etc. what username do you pick?

http://www.twitter.com/Real***
http://www.twitter.com/The***
http://www.twitter.com/whois***
http://www.twitter.com/i***
http://www.twitter.com/**_**
http://www.twitter.com/***_

I don't really like any of the above.

If at all possible I like to keep all of my accounts the same.
E.G
twitter.com/peterbruce5
yt.com/peterbruce5
fb.com/peterbruce5


Suggestions?
 
my last on twitter was with "ze". But next i will think about "at".
 
Yes, atpeterbruce.
Also, there' s "to" or "2"... but at will be my next.
 
This is a hard one.
First of, you could contact the owner of the name you desire and perhaps work out a deal.

An alternative would be to pick a non common name to begin with.
I don't know about stats on Peter Bruce but my guess is that is more than a common name.

Your third alternative would be a new name. I hope that should you pick a new name, you pick something that is not common.

You could also try to spell it in different ways but I have a feeling that's not an option for you. Its a bad idea anyways if you want to be found. A name like Sasquats Uncle would be easier to remember than Bruc3 Peters0n. Right?

Just my 2 cents. Hope it helps. :)
 
on twitter you can see these variations a lot: @therealpeterbruce, @iampeterbruce

I was thinking about adding 2 to the end. Isn't easy for others to remember though IMO.

Looking for something creative that would be easily remembered.
 
You can t do better if you want to keep your name intact.
To resume the only choice you can have is 2 or 3 letters or numbers before or after your original name. Or another choice is to mix mumber with your orignal name. For exemple use number 3 for "e" p3t3rbruc3 ...
 
Try adding "Official" to the beginning or end of the desired username...thats an easy workaround

Yeah, Using numbers in your name really confuses things. Also looks unprofessional.
 
It s 15 max, and yes it s better than number. cons: it s too much caracters to type.
 
Use your site's most important keyword.

If that's already taken, use your site's second most important keyword.

If THAT's already taken, use your site's third most important keyword.

Etc...
 
Problem is that I have 5+ sites selling different things so I don't want to limit it.
 
usually doorknocker its rare to have someone used it but ive experience it lol someone beat me to it. i wanted to keep everything in uniform so i decided to this instead DKgames for my game accounts, DKbusiness or business, DKsocial.
