Mylotters, I decided to create a email account in gmail (already having an email account in yahoo) but I am not able to get desired ID in gmail. Can I use birth date or My father name in gmail ID ? Thanks...

Yes, I think you can get that Id as long as it's not taken yet. Good thing you switched to gmail( a more safer place to mail- where your account does not send countless spams to contacts) Happy gmail-ing friend!

Yes, you can use your birth date or your father's name in gmail ID. I think it would be better if you use your own name with your birth date as the gmail ID.

Ok friend, I'll use my own name and my birth date for my gmail ID rather than my name with my father's name. Thanks Doctrodidi...

A big yes as long as the Id is not taken yet. You can also use a dot(.) to separate characters in your desired ID. That's all! Happy gmail-ing! :)

You can try whatever you like as gmail email but you can also hit the available button if you want faster creation of email.I tried to use the same email as I have in yahoo and it works.Make it simple and easy to remember.

Hi dharanil Email is a most important thing required for our studies and professional jobs. It helps to transfer, store our information. I think gmail is fast and has large storage capacity. Its better to open gmail account nowadays. When we are creating an email account, significantly we should consider the username and password. You should choose username clearly. I think its better to include father name. This helps you to remember username easily.
