In summary, a screen name is a unique identifier used to represent oneself online, also known as a username or handle. Thinner fonts are used in screen names for visual appeal and to convey a certain style. A crossed out screen name typically means the user has changed or deleted their account, but can also be a stylistic choice. Special characters may or may not be allowed in screen names depending on the platform's guidelines. When choosing a screen name, it is important to consider uniqueness, memorability, and appropriateness.
