Hello Sebastian Flæng Markdanner,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

I'm sorry to hear about the confusion and issues you've experienced with changing your child's gamertag and inadvertently changing your own. Unfortunately, Microsoft does charge a fee of 10EUR to change a gamertag, and this fee applies to each gamertag change.



If you believe there was an error or issue with the family management portal that caused the confusion and unintended gamertag changes, I recommend reaching out to Microsoft customer support for assistance.

Thank you for understanding.

I have made my own gamer-tag which was ( BIgBoyLuVMilPhZ ) and they forced changed it which was pretty dumb, and now I have to make another new gamer-tag with my money again. I think they should keep that (FREE NAME CHANGE) for the people who get there gamer-tag
banned for the first time. Don't you think? :/

So because someone decided that my gamer tag of over 2 years needed changed i now have to either live with the lame name that i was provided with or pay to change it.

I got the same error on my son's account, said the gamer tag name was available. Now it says I need to pay $9.95 to change.??? Still the same name he was assigned 😡
