Be 3-16 characters in length.
Not use emojis, punctuation, or special characters.
Not use more than one script or language.
Error message while creating handles
Handle not available: The handle you’re trying to create is already being used by someone else. To fix this, choose a different handle, or try to add something to the handle to make it unique.
Example: If you’re trying to use "CoolCat" and see this error, you can try alternatives like "CoolCat1," "CoolCat2," "CoolestCat," "CoolerCat," etc.
Note:Handles aren't case sensitive, so "CoolCat" is the same as "coolcat" or "COOLCAT" when choosing a handle.
Must be 16 characters or less: Handles have a 16-character limit. Try a shorter handle.
Must be longer than 2 characters: Handles must be more than 2 characters. Try something longer.
Handle not allowed: This appears when a handle doesn’t meet our Community Guidelines. Please try a different handle to continue.
