You could reach out to the person using the name and ask if they're willing to give it up, but be polite and respectful!

Well, honestly, you can't. Choose another unique name and move on.

Use variations or abbreviations of the name. For example, if 'coolname' is taken, try 'cool_name' or 'coolname123'.
