Instagram Username Checker FAQs
What characters can an Instagram username have?
Letters, numbers, full stops and underscores, up to 30 characters. Spaces and other symbols aren't allowed.
Why does Instagram say a name is taken when this says it's free?
Instagram also blocks some names that no account shows, such as names of deleted or disabled accounts. If the app refuses it, try a small variation.
Can I check TikTok usernames too?
Yes, use our TikTok username checker.
Is it free?
Yes, free with no signup.
