Yes, the problem is not the username, but the password. Simply take a random password from a-zA-Z0-9!-?, say 10 characters. The intruder will be an old man by the time he has tested all possible combinations (93^10 = 48,398,230,717,929,318,249) to find out your password. There is no need to fiddle arround with account names. Passwords are only a weak protection if they are not carefully chosen (if you take your middle name, it wont be a protection at all).
