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.

And just try reading it over the phone to someone, especially a non-native-english speaker.

My personal email is first initial with last name, which I can simply tell them without having to try to spell anything out.

I have a state job tho, and there it's first initial and middle initial and last name, why the hell... now I can't email a colleague without looking at a sheet to find their middle initial. Stupid.
