Fuck the old systems with hard character limits.
Firstname.lastname@address is pretty much a universal standard, why would you use anything else?

You'd think that every place should do this, but for whatever reason a lot of them do weird shit like in the OP. Not sure why that is. Maybe they are afraid of the characters running too long or something like that for people with long names?
Edit: Wow just reading through some of the real generated emails in this post is wild lol!!
