well i’m not sure this is supposed to go here but it’s not really a support question anyway back when i started the game i just picked the default name without thinking much about it, now i’ve been playing for a week and would like to use my actual user name after all, is there any way to change it at this point? ---

Moved this to Support as it’s more that than anything else (imo). Have you tried raising a ticket to the support team? Otherwise here you are hoping that @Sirrian or @Nimhain notice and respond… ---

I’d also like to know if this is possible… I play on ps4… and when I started I never thought I’d play much I thought I’d just get a couple trophies and quit so I left it at the default name… now I’m level 218 have nearly all the troops and my name is \*\*\*\*\*\*\* ☹ ---

I suggest contacting 505 Games Support for console versions: [http://support.505games.com/support/home](http://support.505games.com/support/home) Hopefully they will be able to change it, but you may have to keep your invite code (which is how it works on PC/Mobile versions). ---

@sirrian can do it… he renames players who sneak a rude or inappropriate (sexual or swearing) word into their name… I still like to battle MrSparklepants… ---
