Keep in mind that we constantly review channels to make sure your content is in line with our policies. I prefer nameMay/name as it’s the traditional spelling and it invokes the month for me, which reminds me of flowers, fresh cut grass, spring BBQ’s, bonfires – that kind of thing. These channels may need to be added to a Google Account before they can be used. You can control your cast session from your phone with the account signed in on your phone. Members of your household can add their own accounts, and guests can use YouTube signed out (guest mode). Once you’re signed in, you can find your way around the YouTube app on your smart TV or game console.
Valid public watch hours
YouTube can also personalize video recommendations based on the videos you’ve watched and your subscriptions. Some older, unused YouTube channels (created before May 2009) might not be part of a Google Account. To sign in, enter the email address you used for those products.
- Your video must be 25 seconds or longer to add an end screen.
- These two dates can be different if you uploaded your video as private or unlisted, and made it public later.

- Using phone numbers to verify identity is one way to protect our community and combat abuse.
Give attribution
If you’re not eligible yet, select Get notified in the Earn area of YouTube Studio. We also make sure the phone number is linked to no more than 2 channels per year. It looks feminine and romantic, where nameMay/name just looks like the month. I agree with what a lot of others are saying – nameMay/name is a month name, and I don’t particularly like month names. nameMay/name is a month and a question, “nameMay/name I have some more, please? To me, nameMay/name looks overused, mainly from being a month name, and nameMae/name looks very cutesy, like a person’s name.

Your YouTube earnings and tax liability
YouTube doesn’t have a tool to upload audio files, but you can try other video editing software. You can’t upload audio files to create a YouTube video. If you’re 18 or older, your default video privacy setting is set to public. These checks will not restrict your video’s visibility, but your video may be removed later if it violates our policies.
You may not be sure which format to save your video as or you may get an “invalid file format” error message when you’re uploading. Audio files can only be uploaded as extra languages for your video. If you’re in the YouTube Partner Program, you can monetize videos with music and sound effects from the Audio Library. Keep in mind that if your video uses music with a Creative Commons license, the attribution info is still required in your video’s description. If you’re using a track with a Creative Commons license, you must credit the artist in your video’s description.
Keep in mind that any public watch hours from Shorts views in the Shorts Feed don’t count towards the 4,000 public watch hours threshold. If you don’t meet the requirements yet, keep working to make original content and build your audience. As the YouTube Partner Program continues to grow, it’s important to maintain a healthy, active ecosystem of channels.
I used to like the classic spelling nameMay/name more but I’ve learned to love nameMae/name now. nameMay/name is a month and the name is gentle and sweet. nameMae/name is just…I don’t know, but it definitely lacks all of the beauty and fresh flowers that pop to mind when I think of the name nameMay/name. nameBoth/name are pretty but I’d go with nameMay/name, the y adds a sense of strength while the e just looks flimsy. nameMae/name does look pretty but like @naomi13 said, they’d just end up correcting people all of the time! Ok so lots of info in your post… You seem to like 2 syllable fresh sort of fun first names and name_fMae/name_f is your middle of choice S~ for a sn I agree avoid p names name_uHarper/name_u name_fMae/name_f I like best for you.
