I was 10 when the Internet because publicly accessible, and 13 when I made my first ever email address. I used my current username as my email handle, which was an abbreviated version of my name.
It took me like 10 seconds to come up with it. I had a cute girlfriend who was insisting I make a private email because I was sharing my mother’s email account and my girlfriend didn’t like my mother having access to our private conversations.
It’s been 29 years now and I’m still using this username. My original email is long gone, but the username lives on.
