Literally every company I worked in assigned name.surname@company.com, I don’t know why people would complicate their life by doing literally anything else.
I mean yeah, but it happens even more with the naming scheme in the original post. Most companies just add a number when that happens. Predictable naming schemes, at least as the default, make it a lot easier to find people in large companies.
Sorry, I meant professional company emails. Obviously people can make up whatever private gmail account they want. And people can state their preferred name, but the fact that if I call my coworker “Josh” and their last name is “Jacobson”, the fact that I can type in Josh.Jacobson and find them is extremely helpful, and I don’t get why companies would complicate that by making it “jojacko” .
Company I most recently joined gave me name.surname1@company.com. Unfortunately there was someone else with the exact same name combination. Feels bad man.

Because 30 years ago we didn’t have enough letters or something and people stick with tradition because change is apparently really hard to do.
