Great video, as always. On an unrelated note, I want to thank you for having accurate, well-timed captions and not just auto-captions or no captions. It makes your videos much more accessible. So thanks!

“Dont use numbers and use a name relevant to your channel”

1. Use your first and last name
2. Brand/creative name (include topic of channel in name) or topic + tour name
3. Model the Masters-look at your favorite YouTubers and make yours similar

Literally the first 10 comments are "who is reading the comments while watching?"

[jvohnbarlow]

What happens when your first name sounds like garbage?😂

[kaikat]

Idk if anyone else mentioned this, but when two words share the same first letter or sound it's called alliteration, it helps people remember things such as a channel name

[brandiadcock]

I know you probably will beaver see this, but! Hey, I am with you. Been watching all day gathering info. Dude, I have been sanding around this for more than a year. I am a art student in NC and I am about to dive in! Thanks

"Make your YouTube channel name relevant to the content your uploading."
