Top 10 Signs You Have a Bad Username

The Top Ten
1 It’s based on something you used to like but you don’t anymore

For me, kinda, I'm just not as in to HBK anymore. Its not about HBK anymore really, its just to keep me from calling myself just "Eli"

Many famous users even admit to this.

Ahh the irony.

2 It’s a babyish username from when you were little

Maybe it was your love for that, but then as time goes by do you still find it that appealing?

Awesomedp900. Weird...

3 It was taken so you replaced one letter with another

This goes two ways impersonation of someone famous, or you like the username, and even they aren't that poorly received as one would suggest.

4 It’s just random letters
5 It’s just one punctuation mark
6 It alternates capital and lowercase

That or someone intentionally tries to incorrectly type in your username in this style.

I think that looks cool

7 It doesn’t describe you

Picturing the persona the username goes by is how I wanna really give it a go that this individual really does have something to them.

Mine describes me because I like the album Badlands. I prefer Hopeless Fountain Kingdom, but majestichopelessfountainqueen is too long.

For example, if you were nice and your username was ihateyouandimmadatyou or if you were someone like me and your username was CreativeOriginalPerson

Some people think that me being an antimatter predatory bird is a little far-fetched.

8 You have numbers in place of letters in your username thinking that it would be cool

Ahhh, Man this is with my username but just 1 word

Mar10N1nja101, I think this is how mine would look. It looks dumb

311H8k doesn't look cool to me. At least not my name.

T6nde5r7l4n5678s would just look weird

9 Your username is the same as your password

You are asking for some serious intent to be lazy in security preference.

10 Your username was inspired by this list

You know your username is bad if you got the idea from a list called Top 10 Signs You Have a Bad Username.

Yea this would be a very idiotic move.

The Contenders
11 Your username is your school ID number

Its okay to put on numbers on the username, but not entirely of numbers even of a local school ID might not be the greatest idea.

775629 wow such a horrible username

12 It has words to a lullaby

You don't need to fill in all 20+ empty spaces into a jumble of mess.

13 Nobody seems to be able to spell it correctly

I don’t have this problem, but so many deleted accounts have similar usernames to mine! Who is loverfrombadlands? Who is lovefromthebadlands? Who is lovebadlands? I only know who lovefrombadlands is.

Literally nobody can spell mine right

Some people spell my username wrong...

No won can spel luvfrumbadlandz

14 Your username is your own name

Hey guys ever since birth MarioNinja is my real name. Sounds cool right? /sarcasm

There is never enough room for me to write my name on tests because it’s 16 letters.

15 You have rather too many names in one username, even using stuff like "VGCP"
16 It has your name in it

My username has my real name in half Instead of Sidis obviously which Htoutlaws2012 accurately said my reason of creating my username and I'm glad he's a "dwelling being" of me.Mostly Jada has insert her own name(Who can't really spell and shoves her opinions down someone's throat and not leaving me alone because she doesn't know any better)- Kevinsidis

No. Neither of the three words (Metal, Nuclear, and Plant) are my real name.

17 If your name is inappropriate
18 The username ends up being parodied by someone else who makes a username that is the opposite of it.

Because they think they're funny or something.

19 When people make fun of it

People think its childish

They trash talk about it

20 You have an edgy MySpace-esque name
21 It has more numbers than letters
22 Many people use it
23 The name is a bit strange
24 Your name has "(insert something)yes(insert something)no"
25 You use a copyrighted fictional character
