I'd suggest the OP research this point, then, because my personal
opinion is diametrically (and vehemently) opposed to yours. :-)

In general I *despise* being asked to pick a "username". My email
address uniquely identifies me, and that should be good enough.
(Yes, I have more than one, but only a couple that are used for the
purpose under discussion.)

YMMV!
