At least you have the Gmail address you want. My desired username is in a "reserved" state, or something, in that it's linked to my account under "other usernames", and I can log in with it, but I can't create a Gmail account for it.

This all started when I decided to try Lively, of all things. It prompted me for a username, but I never would have entered what I did if I knew that that username would become the permanent name of my Google account.



I don't have the desired gmail that I want. my desired email is paddy@paddymullen.com. my gmail account has a ".gm" appended to the end to get a unique name.
