What about a black list for usernames!?

If someone don’t want to allow certain usernames, es: Discourse, Google, Facebook, (f\*\*\* mf\*\*\*) etc…

Good idea, I recently made the mistake of registering on a site as “Discourse1” but caught it in time to change it.

Ideally it would be able to prevent even portions of names like xxx1, xxx2 xxx3 etc
