I typed in my instagram name on google and clicked images and two of my old profile pics came up! And my profile is private btw. It is really creepy. How can i get it off?

I suggest first removing the the pictures from Instagram, if they haven't been removed yet. If you tried clicking on the picture and it redirects you to an Instagram link, then you haven't taken it off yet, if it gives you some sort of error, then you just have to wait until it's removed from Google's search engine.

Google takes a while to refresh their index of all the websites, all the images, and all the search terms on the Internet. Keep in mind there's billions of people in the world, each one searching for their own name probably at least once a year, and there's billions more different search queries you can search for. So, it will take a while to update, but after a few months, it should be permanently gone from Google.
