How about great email address design? Of course firstname@lastname.com is top tier. But there are some interesting hacks you can do, such as firstn@melastname.com if your last name domain isn't available.


I never thought of this! I have an 'a' in my first name but just checked, 'rest of my first name + last name'.com is already taken. Oh well, I already have 'my initials'.dev, it'll have to do.


Not sure it counts but mine is wicky(AT)nillia(DOT)ms. Which aligns with my username practically everywhere, and is a spoonerism of my actual name.

The downside is that it's a massive pain to explain to people verbally!
