Some usernames missing/locked - Bug

I was fortunate enough to get my Founders code the minute the service went live and I tried to claim “Matt” as my name. Unfortunately Stadia said it was taken. Strangely, from that moment on until now, Matt does not exist. I even went to support who confirmed that even they cannot see a Founder with the name “Matt”. They were not sure how it’s possible that they can’t see the user, but the name says it’s unavailable. I have a theory that the system is bugged from early accounts. Matt#8297 exists on Stadia and was my first friend within the opening minutes of the service. I believe these early accounts trip up the Founders name claim process and make the system think the name exists. Another example might be the Mike account or god. To clarify, I don’t know exactly what is happening, but support confirmed that they cannot see a “Matt” account, but their system wouldn’t let me claim it. Can anyone from the Stadia team please review this potential bug? Yes I’d love the name “Matt”, but I also believe other names might be locked incorrectly as well. Thanks
