Check if a username is available on WhatsApp
Type a name to see whether it is free on WhatsApp, a social network. Free, no sign-up: Nomok also checks 71 other platforms and domain names at once.
How Nomok checks WhatsApp
WhatsApp blocks automated checks or has no public lookup. Instead of showing a wrong result, Nomok gives you the direct link to check in seconds.
Naming rules
Between 3 and 35 characters, starting with a letter: lowercase letters, numbers, periods and underscores. No leading "www.", no ending in .com or .net, no consecutive periods.
WhatsApp rejects a username already used by someone else on Instagram or Facebook: check those two results, then claim it in the app (Settings → Profile → Username).
