Hi @vf Thanks for reaching out. service names are globally unique, if the name is not available you need to try creating a namespace using different name.

you can also verify the availability of names while creating a namespace via a rest api call https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/servicebus/stable/namespaces-check-name-availability/check-name-availability?tabs=HTTP

I had already verified for the given name "myuniquenamepsace" and could see the name is already in use.

{
"nameAvailable": false,
"reason": "NameInUse",
"message": "The specified name is not available. For more information visit https://aka.ms/eventhubsarmexceptions."
}

please let me know incase of further queries, I would be happy to assist you.
