It could just be that the name is either taken; or you may be using invalid characters..

Looks like you got beat out by a 46-year-old from Belgium who never used his account past watching 1 video. Doesn't it make your blood boil?

Sadly, the only way to get the username you want at sites like that is to register in pre-beta. Or if you are lucky, inactive accounts will be deleted and their usernames are allowed to be reused.

Here:

"We do not accept usernames with spaces or special characters. You can be "JohnSmith", but not "John Smith" or "John-Smith." Please only use letters and numbers."

If that dont clear it up, try contacting youtube.
