The complete username checker

Check username availability everywhere at once

Handle.tools is a free username availability checker. Type a name once and instantly see whether it's free on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, GitHub, Linktree, Dribbble and Dev.to, and whether the matching .com, .io, .ai and other domains are available. No accounts, no opening a dozen sign-up pages.

A consistent handle is what makes a personal brand easy to find. Whether you're naming a startup, launching as a creator or shortlisting names for a client, checking every platform up front stops you building on a name that's already taken somewhere that matters.

Guide

How to find an available username

Four steps to a handle you can own everywhere.

  1. STEP 01
    Start with one word

    Pick a short word that says who you are or what you do. Under 15 characters is ideal.

  2. STEP 02
    Check it everywhere

    Search it here to see every platform and domain at once, not one site at a time.

  3. STEP 03
    Tweak, don't reinvent

    If it's taken, add a simple prefix or suffix (the, real, hq) so it stays recognisable.

  4. STEP 04
    Claim it the same day

    Register the .com and sign up on each platform before someone else takes it.
