How the Username Request System Works
As detailed in a recent Yahoo! Tumblr Blog post, a dedicated page has been established to facilitate username requests. Users can specify their top five choices.
Should your primary selection be unavailable, the system will automatically consider your subsequent backup options.
Notification and Claiming Your Username
During mid-August, you will receive an email notification indicating which of your submitted usernames has been successfully allocated to you.
This email will include a link enabling you to claim your new username within a 48-hour timeframe. Upon claiming, the username will be officially yours.
