Mine is https://www.linkedin.com/in/marchalpert. Your name by itself may not be available if taken by someone else previously.
Be careful what you ultimately choose; it’s yours for life.
Beware using a middle initial as it is hard to differentiate form a different last name (for example, in https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcwhalpert: is my last name halpert or whalpert?)
Consider adding a dash or underscore between your first name and last name, or end it with a number after your name to be unique. Or “cpa” or “esq” as the case may be.
Now you know. Just do it please?
