So I'm planing making a new personal email, but I don't I don't know how it should be!
examples:
DennisBusey@mail.com
DennisB@mail.com
DBusey@mail.com
Gime your ideas!

BIG EDIT: Thanks for your answers!
This email is personal, and apart from giving it to friends, bank, gov and couple bill companies, I won't give it anywhere else. Also the privacy people where to much IMO, not easy to remember number and letters.

You should have no fewer than 3 email addresses. 1 for official use that you shouldn't feel embarrassed about giving to another adult or putting on a resume. 2nd for anonymous logins or at least for those frequent but maybe expect a little spam. 3rd you can have as many as you want but you need spam/throw away email addresses.

That being said, none of them should give away too much information about you but the official email should give just enough of a hint so that someone that knows you might recognize your email address. So never put your full name or an important date/number in your email address.

After a long explanation why, I recommend first name letter after full last name with a symbol.
