Frequently asked questions

What are the rules for a Minecraft username?

Java Edition names must be 3 to 16 characters long and use only letters A-Z, numbers 0-9 and underscores. Every username the tool makes follows these rules.

Does the tool check if a name is taken?

No. Names are made in your browser. Check availability in the Minecraft launcher or on the official profile page before you change your name.

How often can I change my Minecraft name?

Java Edition lets you change your name once every 30 days at no cost through your Microsoft account.

Can I get a name for my world or server?

Yes. Switch the mode to World name or Server name. Those names can be longer and use spaces.

What makes a good gamer tag?

Short, easy to say and easy to spell. Avoid long strings of numbers so friends can find you quickly.
