Getting more from these captions

Keep it professional if it is your real account
Clients and colleagues may search you. A dry joke is fine; anything edgy may not age well.
Check it is not a big account
Search the name before printing it anywhere. We cannot promise any name here is free, so check each one.

Questions

Should I include my profession in the name?

Only if the account is about work. A profession word makes you easier to find but narrows the account to one subject.

Is it better to use my real name?

For a personal or professional account, yes; people search real names. For a hobby page, a themed name is fine.
