No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Beautifully said, ChewbaccasClitoris.
Naming things is the hardest part of everything.
That's why I'm never going to have children.
Just pick the 15th most common name of the previous year. Then your kid will be fine.
This is legit a really good move. Not too common, so you need a nickname because there will always be five children with the same amen on the playground. But also common enough that they will very rarely have to spell it out.
Please tell my wife this.
Just name your kids after your ~~richest~~ favorite relatives and wait for that sweet sweet inheritance dosh to come your way
Depends on what you'll be using it for. ie: 'UrGranny' could be fun for games but it might not work as intended on OF.

a cool 3-letter username can be neat
Found out when I tried to get a domain name for my initials. Very fucking expensive.
It sure is.
Just don't add any random numbers to the name, which I see you haven't done, so I think you're good.
Yeah, everyone hates random numbers.... right?

Just toss some stuff you enjoy together. It's not like you only ever get one- I've had a few over the years.
Mine is just a combo of two mythological figures that also have to do with stars/outer space. I like Sci-Fi, and I like mythologies.
Yeah, this. The 2 usernames I currently use both include types of Japanese mythological creatures, and before that I used basically whatever was on my desk with some random numbers

One more vote for mythological inspiration!
Usernames aren't good or bad. It can be "you" or it can be anything. Just follow your heart or your gut.
Or let your password manager do it for you.

Provoked Gamer is pretty baller. Are you asking for a friend?

I went with something that would be inscrutable. You're welcome!
You evil genius. I've been just keyboard mashing for recent usernames, but I like this version.
Whatever truly describes who you are
Gotta keep it simple and to the point.

Ask ChatGPT for a list. Give it some basic guidelines.
Use something that puts a silly picture in the head of whoever reads it.
Or a weird concept.
A hex number that is meaningful to you.
Or just find a D&D name generator and use that, idk.
Number Six: I'm not a number I'm a free man!
You don't.
It’s hard to go wrong with tv show or movie references
