Had my name taken away on Xbox. I’m now “MagicPants”.

News & Discussion

I just paid $10 for a name change on Xbox and I would like to use it, please.

You should have a free name change on B-Net. Change it to your Xbox name. Just know there’s a 12 character limit I believe.

Take that up with Blizzard and however many people they’re making money off of over name changes.

How generous. Never asked for them to change my name or this hassle, but okay. Thank you for the answer.

It’s not that your console name changed, it’s just a result of cross play and needing to link a B-Net account. I had to pay out money myself to change mine never thinking I’d need to use it again, but here we are. Blizzard wins again and makes money in the process. Unsurprising.
