Do you mean a vanity bitcoin address? You can generate one yourself, check this thread:

If you mean vanity address you can ask shorena to make one for you. I forgot where his/her thread about this is. After you get one you can import it in blockchain.

There are some users that offers a similar service, if the lenght of the custom bitcoin address is small( the first letters) then it would be cheap. Search on this board, if you cant find anyone then contact shorena if he/she still is offering this service.

No offense to BBHex but I think it'll be better for you to ask someone trusted like shorena instead.  Since you don't seem to know anything about creating a vanity address, it'll be easy for anyone to fool you and give you a non split-key vanity address (meaning that they can spend any bitcoins in that address).

I don't have any intention in fooling anyone, like i said we will use what redsn0w has provided and if you know it i don't have any access to whatever file or software it is. I will just teach him how so no risk on both parties

I think you are talking about vanity addresses like 1yourtextowofuwf93920r0 etc address. I am quite sure they don't have this feature in their wallet. I have seen some person giving this service but its better not to trust those services as your private key of those generated address might be with those service providers also.

When you make vanity address your self no one knows your private key. So their is no way that your accountaddress get hacked by other person. vanity addresses takes some time for its creation. Also i suggest you better use custom addresses why you want vanity?

P.S: Their is no risk for vanity address unless the address is created by yourself.

Seems that there is some confusion between "custom" and "vanity"...

They are the same thing... they refer to an address like "1bapparabiXwo2uWf9gl920r0"

Your options are to follow the thread that was linked...

PROs: "free", more secure as no one else has ever seen private key.
CONs: takes time, requires basic commandline skills, requires you to download and run app.

Or you can use one of the various services to generate one for you...

PROs: less effort required, no download required
CONs: possibly costs money, less secure as someone else has seen the private keys, still can take time

Whichever way you generate it, you then just need to import the new address into your wallet by importing the private key matching the new address.
