Any source for public keywords for usernames?

Question

I am working on a web service and should prevent users from registering with certain usernames such as admin, root, etc.

I know that this is a common problem that everyone faces when developing a new service, so I thought that there should be a database or at least some examples of usually forbidden usernames for sites, but not find them on Google. I think I'm not looking for him with the right keyword.

Can someone point a resource to this?

I found this on google http://fffff.at/googles-official-list-of-bad-words/

And many other results, I don’t know if you just want to copy and paste into your own script or read it to get an idea of ​​what words they forbid.

If you are planning to implement this yourself, be aware of the Scunthorpe problem . Basically, when decent words get banned because they have a word in spelling.

Judging by your post, you want this for usernames, I would then allow them to create a user (if it does not exist from c), but send a notification to the moderator, if it is really double-digit, then force the name to be changed and deny until you finish.
