Frequently asked questions
How do you choose a good Instagram username?
Go for a handle that's short, easy to remember and spell, and close to your name or brand. Avoid unnecessary numbers and underscores: they scream “secondary account” and are harder to remember.
Which characters are allowed in an Instagram handle?
Letters, numbers, periods and underscores only. No spaces or special characters, 30 characters maximum, and it can't start or end with a period. The tool only generates valid handles.
How do you know if a handle is available?
Click “Check” next to an idea: it opens instagram.com/thehandle. If no profile shows up (“Sorry, this page isn't available”), the handle is probably free. Instagram doesn't allow reliable automatic checks without being logged in, but this link confirms it in a second.
Can I change my username later?
Yes, from Settings → Edit profile. Avoid changing it too often though: it confuses your audience and breaks your links.
Is the tool free?
Yes, 100% free, no sign-up and instant.
