How to change your name in CS:GO while in-game?

Oh, wanna go incognito or just spice things up a bit? Easy peasy! Just open the console (you might need to enable it first from the game settings - look for 'Enable Developer Console' and set it to 'Yes'). Once that's up, just type 'setname' followed by your new desired name in quotes. For example: setname "SneakyBeaky". Hit enter, and voilà, new identity!

Been there, done that. Changed my name to confuse the other team. Worked like a charm. Just make sure you've enabled the console in the game settings first!

Honestly, just keep your name. Changing it mid-game is kinda sus.

Just press tilde (~), type setname 'YourNewName', hit enter. Done.
