Nickname is already taken

I tried to change my nickname but it says that nickname is already taken. I searched through origin users and no user with such nickname was found. What should I do?

    Hi @Camarad_Che

    The names are still likely taken, you can hide your profile so people can't find you that's why. You can try this by searching the most popular names.

    You will have to find a name that is slightly different i'm afraid.

Hey @Camarad_Che if a username is showing as being already taken then you will need to find another username. You can try changing the name around slightly, using numbers in place of letters for example to see if you can get it as close to the name you want as possible.
