Disable the use of "inkwell" in usernames
IdeaDone
I created another account to test some things and it allowed me to use "inkwell" in the username. Might want to block the use of the word and any derivatives of it in usernames to prevent impersonation of you

Reserved usernames are now blocked at registration. Over 30 names that could cause brand confusion (inkwell, admin, moderator, etc.) or conflict with system routes are case-insensitively blocked. Existing conflicting usernames have been reassigned. The Terms of Service (Section 2) has been updated to reflect this policy.
