      FYI, this is just default Reddit behaviour. If you login with a Google account (which I presume many do as it’s easy) Reddit gives you a username in that format

        Not only Google. It just generates a name for you when you register that you can use if you want. I had some weird usernames like that because I wanted to have at least a bit of privacy. I just used the one it gave me.

        I just tried it and after verifying my 10minutemail email address it created the following username for me: https://i.imgur.com/Ap8qiGN.png

        Clicking the icon next to the username gives me these:

        • Amazing-Solution2835
        • Future_Tangelo_4501
        • Strange-Regret-2869

          HELLO FELLOW HUMANS. I’m sorry I cannot answer this prompt as it violates OpenAI terms of services. I’m not allowed to answer in a way that misleads people to think I’m a real human and that conceals my nature as a fancy auto complete.
