Choosing a professional email address has few steps that should be considered. To create a professional Email ID follow the below guidelines. People judge a stranger with his/her Email ID. Here are some things that should be avoided in Email id.
Things to Avoid while creating a Professional Email ID
Avoid Nicknames
Avoid using your nicknames in your Email id. Make sure you use only your real name in the Email id. Use of both first name and last name in Email id is perfect.
Avoid Numbers
Numbers are generally hard to remember, you would anyone like to keep strange combination of numbers on their email id. Some people keep their phone number, others choose to append their birth year in their email id, that should be avoided. An email id without numbers makes it more professional.
Creating a Professional Email Address
Avoid Underscore
Underscore is allowed in email ids, but it would be advisable to use a “dot” instead of an “underscore”.
Avoid Multiple Separtors
In between your first name and last name always use a separator such as a “dot” to differentiate. But make sure you don’t use more than one separator in the Email ID.
Avoid Appending Work place or University names
Many follow the habit of keeping their school, university or the name of the place they work in their email address. This is not a good choice for a permanent email address.

I think either company name at company domain name or your name at company domain name will look more professional. Or simply your name at any web mail provider will do the trick.
