While trying to figure if there is a way to create aliases for Gmail email accounts I found two interesting features.
First, Gmail supports email address extensions, you can add any string after your username, connected with a '+' and messages sent to this address will end up in your mailbox. For example, if your address is first.last@gmail.com then this will also work: first.last+chat@gmail.com. Basically the '+' and everything following it gets stripped off in order to figure the real mailbox.
