In my every application i want to create a unique url for users profile as http://app.com/username .
I have the name of user is : 'Vijay Kumbhar' i can create http://app.com/vijay_kumbhar, but if there is another user registers with the same name then what will be better way of creating url for that user. one way is to add vijay_kumbhar_1, but i dont think this is the proper way of creating a unique url
Can you please suggest me the better way of doing this.

Essentially, a vanity or custom URL is a unique web address branded for marketing purposes. It is specific to your website and your business and can help your audience reach you more quickly and easily.
This custom URL typically serves as the Web address of your profile page and can be shared and bookmarked by other users. Examples of websites that allow you to choose a personal URL include social networking sites like Facebook, photo sharing sites like Flickr, and various Web forums.
Keeping in the User experience in consideration, firstly provide the user with unique id, through which you can identify the User easily. After that you can allow the User to opt for any new User Name (screen name), but there should be a check again that the user name has to be unique again. Depends upon your requirement. Do keep us posted what way you opted at last.
