I can't create a user account because the username is already taken:

Ask this user if they have an existing Siras account, if they do, we need to request the original to come to your district.

If they happen to have the same first and last name as another Siras user somewhere else, and they don't already have an account, then we can create a new account with a slightly different username like first1.last or firstX.last where we add a number or middle initial into the usename to make it unique.  Don't try to add characters to the username.
