Minecraft username

When I logged into windows 10 using my Microsoft account it instantly used my Xbox username. It there any way I can make my Minecraft account different than my Xbox username? This would be extremely helpful, especially because my Minecraft username
is 13 letters, and Xbox usernames can only be 12 letters!

Hi there,

I found this article, I hope this helps:

Minecraft Usernames

This article covers Minecraft usernames for Minecraft: Java Edition on PC/Mac. Minecraft on other platforms do not require usernames, but if you play on Minecraft Realms on these platforms you will use your Xbox gamer tag. The console editions of Minecraft
use Xbox gamer tag or Sony PSN ID.



Where can I find my username?

If you have a Mojang account, your username can be found and changed on your Mojang account page.

Can I change my username?

Users who have a Mojang account (the default account type for all accounts registered after November 2012) can change their username for free at account.mojang.com/me by clicking the
(Change) link next to your profile name.

If you sign in with your username, as older accounts do, you'll first need to migrate to a Mojang account before you can change your username.

Hi Julius Juodsnukis,

Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community! I'm sorry to hear that you are having an issue changing your Minecraft username. Most likely, the username you selected may belong to another account. Third party websites can potentially show incorrect or inaccurate information. Additionally, Mojang Studios reserves the right to block a username at any time if it deems it inappropriate or for another reason.

Please note that you can only change your Minecraft username once every 30 days. Additionally, logging out and back into the website or using a different browser may help. If you still need help, feel free to reach out here!

Hello Binchunsu, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

I'm sorry you're having problems with your Minecraft username. Sometimes Minecraft's username filtering system can be too strict and flag names that seem harmless. This can be due to a variety of reasons, such as words in different languages ​​that may be considered offensive, or even an unfortunate coincidence of characters.

If you are sure that “binchunsu” is not offensive in any language and does not violate the Minecraft community guidelines, I would recommend that you contact Mojang or Microsoft support for additional help. They might be able to help you change your username to “binchunsu.”

Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.
