The sub-domain name is already used

It's impossible to create a sub-domain name, whichever combination I use and it's impossible that a couple I tried exist already. This is really frustrating.

    Hi, thanks for reaching out. If a subdomain name is already in use, there's no way to reuse it unless it is deleted. However, please review the name requirements, and try using alphanumeric characters and the '-' character. Hope this helps.

    I noticed that if the name includes an underscore character ("_"), I will get this message no matter what. The fix for me was to only use letters and numbers for the name.
