Depends on what exactly you are trying to do.


You can log in to https://icloud.com/ and create an alias of your existing iCloud Account. Email sent to this alias will arrive at your current iCloud inbox but can be sorted into its own folder using mail rules if you want. To everybody else, this will look like it's own independent email address.

Or you can go to https://account.apple.com and create a completely new Apple Account with it's own associated iCloud email address.

You cannot create just a standalone iCloud email address if that is what you mean.

I agree with Phil124 that an Alias of your primary iCloud account would be the easiest and best option.


The second option would be to get a Gmail account and add it to your Mail app.
