Frequently asked questions
How do I check if a Dribbble username is available?
Type the username above and press Check. handle.tools queries Dribbble directly and tells you whether the handle is free or taken — no Dribbble account required.
What are Dribbble's username rules?
Dribbble usernames can be 2–30 characters and include letters, numbers, hyphens and underscores. Spaces and periods are not allowed.
Why is a Dribbble username important for designers?
Dribbble is the primary portfolio platform for UI/UX designers, illustrators and creative directors. Your dribbble.com/username is often the first link in a design CV or portfolio. A clean handle matching your other profiles builds immediate credibility with clients and recruiters.
Can I change my Dribbble username?
Yes — log in to Dribbble and go to Account Settings to update your username. Your old dribbble.com/username URL will stop working, so update any portfolio or CV links you've shared.
