Do you have to be formal when choosing your GitHub username?

I feel maybe people previously having difficulty to remember my previous username "rynvva",

so i am choosing and renaming my github username to something unique and yet easy to remember, so here i am with my github username

in my opinion, GitHub username doesn't have to be formal but instead must easy to search for the other people

I wonder, can you show me your unique GitHub username and what reason?

It's a nickname given to me by a friend who has since passed. If I were to do it all over again I would stay consistent across platforms. Everywhere else on social media you can find me at jremsikjr.

That's a short, easy to remember and a nice username, agree once you picked a username you must use it consistently especially when you have a lot of connections to peoples

Thanks
