Google doesn’t even factor into this. Go to your registrar of choice (namecheap, etc), buy a domain, and setup that domain to forward all emails to your email address.
So if you have [email protected] and you just bought abraxas.me, in namecheap you can setup *@abraxas.me to go to your gmail account, and then sign up for sites using [email protected] you want.

Are you able to differentiate between emails as they come in? E.g., seeing an email was sent to [email protected] vs [email protected]?
