Frequently Asked Questions

How do I change my Minecraft username?

Log into your Minecraft account at minecraft.net, go to your profile, and click 'Change Name'. Java Edition names can be changed once every 30 days. Bedrock Edition uses your Microsoft Gamertag, which can be changed once for free then costs Microsoft Points.

What makes a good Minecraft username?

Great Minecraft usernames are 8–16 characters (the sweet spot for readability), use a mix of words and optionally numbers or underscores, reflect something about your play style, and are easy to type in chat. Avoid numbers at the end (like xXDragonSlayer99Xx) — original word combinations stand out far more.

How many characters can a Minecraft username have?

Minecraft Java Edition usernames can be 3–16 characters and may contain letters (A–Z), numbers (0–9), and underscores (_). Spaces and special characters are not allowed. Bedrock Edition Gamertags follow Microsoft's rules: 2–12 characters.
