Twitch username checker for new and returning streamers
Whether you're starting a channel or rebranding one, the name has to be free first. This Twitch username checker looks names up on Twitch live and shows the result next to Kick, YouTube, TikTok and the other big platforms.
Twitch usernames are 4 to 25 characters using letters, numbers and underscores, and you can only rename once every 60 days. Twitch also holds on to the names of banned accounts, so short and common names that look free often aren't. We flag those as 'Likely taken'.
Your name follows every clip, raid and shout-out, so it's worth getting right. Check it everywhere at once, and consider a matching .tv, .gg or .com for your schedule, links and merch.
