How it works
- Pick a style: two words, a word and a number, an underscore, or short.
- Type a word of your own to build the names around it. Leave it empty for a random list.
- Press New list for twelve more. Press Check beside a name to ask Mojang whether it is free.
- Found one? The username guide walks through the change on Java and on Bedrock.
Questions
- Where do the words come from?
- The nouns are the game's own: mobs, blocks, items and places, from Allay to Zombie. The adjectives are plain English. No brand names, no creators, no copied names from other players.
- Are the names checked for availability?
- Each one can be. Press Check beside a name and the page asks Mojang whether a Java Edition account holds it, the same lookup as the name checker. Checks run one at a time because Mojang answers a burst of lookups with errors.
- Why are short names almost always taken?
- Names of 3 to 5 characters are the rarest thing on a 15-year-old service, and people run scripts to claim any that drop. A short name that shows as not taken is worth acting on at once.
- Can I use a generated name on Bedrock?
- Bedrock uses your Xbox gamertag, which allows spaces and gets a number suffix when the name is shared. Every name here also fits the gamertag rules, but its availability is checked on Xbox when you change it, not here.
