Last updated
Wondering how you can switch up your Minecraft username? Let’s dive into exactly how you can change your name in Minecraft, so you can keep your gaming experience fresh and exciting.
Whether you’ve outgrown your current name or just looking for a change, figuring out how to change your name in Minecraft is a common question for many gamers.
Quick Guide to Changing Your Minecraft Name
Changing your Minecraft name is simpler than you might think. First, ensure you own the game and have a Mojang account. You’ll need to log in to the Mojang account website, navigate to the profile page, and there you’ll find the option to change your name next to your Minecraft profile.
Remember, you can only change your Minecraft username once every 30 days. So, make sure you’re really in love with your new name before you commit. Another point to note is that your old name will become available to other players after 37 days, so think carefully if you’re considering going back to it in the future.
