You can try linking the Epic account associated to the Fortnite profile to your son's account
That could help, if you need it. Check this article with all the steps:

You would have to co tact fortnite and see if they can move the gamer tag associated with the account.

Hello Rich,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. Unfortunately, it is impossible to move gamer tag from one account to another. However, if the account you want to move it to, does not have a gamer tag then you can

change the primary email on the one you want to move with the other email.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Brad

Another thing to consider is that are these 'Xbox' gamer tags? If you are trying to setup cross-play, you will need to set-up an Epic account and link your Xbox account to it. Then you can add other Epic account users their from other platforms.

Here is some quick guides:

Thanks for the quick reply.

He actually has a child account, but his 'gamer tag' is associated with my account. From what I have researched, you cannot move a gamer tag to a child account on an Xbox One. If that is not correct, any references to how to do it would be greatly appreciated.
If it matters, and I know it does for Xbox 360, I have an Office 365 subscription on my MS account. On a 360, that prevents moving gamer tags.
