Is your username chosen or generated?

I started using Reddit a few years ago and didn’t understand that I was given a generated username and needed to change it in a certain window before it became permanent.

I’m sure it was clearly stated, but I was rushing through to sign up 🥲🥲

So I’m curious how many others out there as the same?

Also, have you ever started to like your username if so? I have so many ideas I’d rather have, so every time I see mine I literally go “😒”
