Regular Expressions - Restrict Possible Usernames

JavaScript
1

What’s happening:

I reached to a different solution. It passed all tests, but I would like it to be reviewed.

My code so far

let username = "JackOfAllTrades";
let userCheck = /^[a-z][a-z]*([a-z]|\d\d)\d*$/i;
let result = userCheck.test(username);

First of all, great job on solving this. There is no one right answer here. There are multiple ways to solve this.

This seems messy to me. The middle [a-z] can definitely be removed.

Thank you @bbsmooth .
You are right, this way is clearer:

let userCheck = /^[a-z]+([a-z]|\d\d)\d*$/i;
