Mine is the most original ever: 😐
[First Name][Last Name] at Gmail and Yahoo.
Got the yahoo when they first started offering them, and the Gmail when it was invite only.
Yahoo for 90% of my online correspondence. Gmail for mostly professional / work related stuff.

Funny… half the platforms I had email addresses are gone. How’d she manage to find the one that survived.?
My mom made my first email on KOL(AOL for kids) and misspelled my name. To this day my gmail has that misspelling in it.
Mikie?

I am still using an abstraction of my first ever Geocities password in some older accounts that I haven’t scrambled yet. Password requirements were basically nil back last century, it’s important to remember.
I still remember my icq number and password. I just double checked to see if I took my bp meds this evening

Darn s8ers
A couple of years ago, I was applying for a work visa, and they needed my college transcripts. Despite matriculating in 19somethingsomethingoldold, my class was one of the first to use an online system that was able to be migrated into multiple subsequent generations of registrar systems, so they needed to have my school email ID, which I hadn’t thought about eleventymilliongetoffmylawn years, so THAT meant placing a call to campus IT, and providing enough personal information for them to look it up.
And that, my online friends, is when you are forced to viscerally confront that you were a deeply cringe knowitall who spent way too much time thinking your personality flaws were edgy superpowers and that knowing the name of a random reference in a Bertrand Russell book you barely understood proved how smart you were.
First initial, last name, never fails. Except when you change your name. Then it fails.
Susan Hart disagrees.
So does Alan Buser.
I dont know why but this reminds me of the joke in arrested development where tobias wanted to be an analytical therapist and he made it into the portmanteau “analrapist” 😂
Ok, so it also fails sometimes when your name is unfortunate. But other than those times that it fails, it never fails.
Sadly my name is slightly common but I’ve had my Gmail account since it was invite only. I’m not a Google fan but there is my entire life in that email history…
I have extended family life never met use my Gmail (firstletterlastname) as theirs because they forget to add the numbers or whatever else they used to create theirs.
I knew two D. Adcocks. Their email address must be fun.
Double dadcocks.

Me at age 6, picking my username (and therefore first email address), knowing that it needs to be unique so I can use it for all accounts online, and also have meaning behind it so I don’t look like an idiot when I’m an adult: 🐺🖥️🌐
(this name is 27 years old and counting)
I was 10 when the Internet because publicly accessible, and 13 when I made my first ever email address. I used my current username as my email handle, which was an abbreviated version of my name.
It took me like 10 seconds to come up with it. I had a cute girlfriend who was insisting I make a private email because I was sharing my mother’s email account and my girlfriend didn’t like my mother having access to our private conversations.
It’s been 29 years now and I’m still using this username. My original email is long gone, but the username lives on.
This one is from AOL. Circa 1993/1994
Nice. I cannot even remember my username from back then. Lost it sometime between military and college.
E: ah, you meant your username. Nice!
Yeah, that UI isn’t from Win 9x or anything I recognize. But my first account was with AOL as well, ha.

You can forward emails from another address for your resume, and I don’t think siriusxm cares
