I've been doing this for years, using the format 'UniqueUsername' not only for e-mails (I couldn't get it in Gmail unfortunately) but also for domains, social media, etc.

Yes, I got in on Gmail early enough to get my UniqueUsername, and I also got firstname.lastname usernames for everyone in my family except for me! However, if I were starting off today I might instead create a UniqueUsername that obscures who I really am. As long as it's distinctive the actual meaning of names seem to be rather irrelevant today. Look at all the company names that mean nothing to most people: Google, Zoho, or Apple are memorable but don't really tell you anything about what the company does.
