Is there any way to use special characters on xbox with only a controller?

Hi there!

If the special character is not available on the virtual keyboard, you may instead search it through the Microsoft Edge browser then copy & paste it.

Launch the Microsoft Edge web browser, then search the character. Place your cursor at the start of the text you want to copy by pressing the "A" button twice on your controller to highlight a specific word or character. If you wish to highlight more text, use your left joystick to highlight additional text.

After you have highlighted the text that you want to copy, press the "Menu" button on your controller (the one with three horizontal lines, beneath the Xbox button) and select "Copy" or "Select all."

Head to your messages, or wherever you want to paste the text, select the text box where you want to paste your text, and then press the "Menu" button and click "Paste." The text you copied should appear in the text box.

The only way to not get the suffix is to choose a gamertag nobody else has and not to use special characters.

The only way would be to change your tag to a gamertag that is not in use and doesn't have special characters.

The only way to remove the suffix is to change your gamertag to a tag that no one else is using and doesn't include special characters.

The only way to do that is to change your tag to another gamertag that nobody else is using and that doesn't include special characters. There is no way to remove them otherwise.
