  1. Display name


    So I changed my name to a bunch of Russian characters cause i thought it looked cool. And since the name was in russain characters and not all games allow anything else but English, it asked me to make a second usename (backup name) for non-compatable
    games. Fortnite, the game I play, does allow Russian characters, however my display name appears as the backup name. Is there any way to make my in game name appear as my xbox display name, or will it just always be the backup name.

    :)

    No, you would have to change your tag. Some games offer custom name display, but not many

    Hey there

    плцдлцлщ

    ,

    Thanks for reaching out to the Forums for clarity concerning the back up name and whether or not it can be used in Fortnite. The thing is, the best team to answer this would be

    Epic Games' support.


    When you get the chance, reach out to them to see if that helps get to the bottom of this.

    Thanks for reading!

    I personally dont like the new numbers thing, I think a unique tag should be that, but understand ms view and this gives a way to keep a unique ID but allow name to be same

    With your suggestion you could have several players on popular games using same name and yes you can click in maybe to differentiate but would you know which one team killed spawn camped etc?

    I'm one of the people that play games, and I do want the same gamertag across them all thanks. I totally understand that it isn't for everyone, but try not to claim that you speak for everyone.
