You should be fine adding the username to the URL. If you don't need to use the parameter to locate the user, no big deal it can still be there.

Creating URL´s which include ID and Name
Hello,
is there any way to create URL´s like
http://domain.tld/users/username-1
http://domain.tld/users/1-username
http://domain.tld/users/1/username
http://domain.tld/users/username/1
and so on..
instead of:
http://domain.tld/users/{id]
Any chance to do that, without screwing up my code?
Thanks in advance,

@ChristopherRaymond Thanks! But i´m a little bit lost.
Can you please provide me with a example?
routes.php
Route::resource('articles', 'ArticlesController');
ArticlesController.php
public function show($id)
{
$article = Article::findOrFail($id);
return view('articles.show', compact('article'));
}
index.blade.php
@extends('app')
@section('content')
<h1>Articles</h1>
<hr/>
@foreach($articles as $article)
<article>
<h2>
<a href="{{ url('/articles', $article->id) }}">{{ $article->title }}</a>
</h2>
<div class="body">{{ $article->body }}</div>
</article>
@endforeach
@stop
How can i get
http://domain.tld/articles/ID/article-title

In your routes, override the route in question. Your routes would look something like this ...
Route::get('articles/{id}/{title}', ['as' => 'article.show', 'uses' => 'ArticlesController@show']);
Route::resource('articles', 'ArticlesController');
Then in your template ...
<a href="{{ route('article.show', [$article->id, urlencode($article->title)]) }}" ...
Just make sure you put the new route ABOVE the existing one.

Works like a charm!
One last question: How can i replace the plus-sign in my links with a dash? ( - )
Level 4
preg_replace('/\+/', '-', urlencode($article->title))
Level 2
if you want dash. maybe use str_slug($article->title)
