Quick Guide to Using a Name Tag
First, you need a name tag, which you can find in game chests, fish up with a fishing rod, or get from trading with villagers. Once you’ve got one, here’s the fun part – naming an animal or mob!
To use the name tag, first, make sure you have an anvil. Place the name tag in the anvil, then type the name you want into the text field. Voila! Your name tag is ready. Now, right-click on your chosen animal or mob with the named name tag, and like magic, they have a brand-new name.
