Free Instagram Username Generator
Describe your account and get twelve username ideas to check on Instagram.
About this tool
A good username is easy to say, easy to spell and hints at what the account is about. This generator suggests twelve options in the style you choose. It cannot see which names are taken, so search each one in Instagram before you decide.
How to use it
- Describe the account and add a name or word if you want one included.
- Choose a style.
- Check your favourites in Instagram's search. Taken names will show an existing profile.
Example
Minimalist home decor and slow living, include "Nora", clean style
You get (one of several)slowlivingwithnora (says the niche and the name)
Tips for better results
- Keep it under 15 characters when you can.
- Avoid number strings and doubled letters that people mistype.
- Say it out loud. If you have to spell it, it is too hard to share.
- Use the same name on other platforms if it is free there.

What characters can an Instagram username use?
Letters, numbers, periods and underscores, up to 30 characters, with no spaces.
Does this tool check if a username is available?
No. It cannot see Instagram's accounts. Search each name in the app to see if it is taken.
Can I change my username later?
Yes, but your old link stops working and the name may be taken by someone else. Choose carefully.
Should my username match my brand name?
Ideally yes, so people can find you when they search the brand. If the exact name is taken, add a short word such as the niche.
