    How to Make a Name Unique When It Is Taken

    Try one of these quick fixes before you give up on a name you like.

    • Add a short word in front or behind, like Real, The, OG or X, so the shape stays familiar.
    • Swap one or two letters for numbers, but keep it readable. Too many numbers and nobody can type it.
    • Drop an underscore or a period between two words instead of a space.
    • Combine two unrelated ideas you like, such as a colour and an object, or an animal and a mood.
    • Change the spelling slightly while keeping the sound the same.
    • Add your initials at the end and treat them like a signature.

    FAQ

    Can I use spaces in my Snap name?

    Display names often allow spaces while the handle does not. Check what the app shows you while you type and stay with letters, numbers, underscores and periods for the part people search.

    Are numbers a bad idea?

    Not at all, as long as there are only one or two and they are easy to read out loud. A string of random digits makes your name hard to share.

    Should I pick a funny name or a serious one?

    It depends on who you add. A funny name works well with friends. If you use the account for work or school groups, a cleaner name saves you awkward questions later.

    What if I get bored of my name?

    Most people change their handle at least once. Start with something you like now, and keep a shortlist of backups so switching later is painless.
