How to change your Discord display name

  1. Pick a style

    Choose one without a โ€œtoo longโ€ mark. Display names allow 32 characters, and the counter checks the styled text, not the plain text you typed.

  2. Open the field

    Open your profile settings and find the Display name field. For a server nickname, edit your profile on that server instead.

  3. Paste and save

    Paste the copied text and save. Then read your name in a chat message to confirm every letter shows.

What works on Discord

Discord states that a display name is 1 to 32 characters and may contain special characters, spaces, emojis and non-Latin characters, so styled letters are allowed there. The About Me section allows up to 190 characters, and Discord lists Unicode characters as allowed. For server nicknames the help page states no limit, and the 32 character cap is commonly reported, so treat both the cap and styled text there as unconfirmed.

Usernames accept only a-z, 0-9, underscore and period, so no fancy style can be used there. Custom status has no length on its help page. Some community posts say 128, which we could not confirm.

Discord does not say whether it counts code points, UTF-16 units or grapheme clusters. A name that fits our counter could still be cut, so paste it and look at the result.

Discord character limits

Fancy text on Discord: Accepted. Display name, server nickname (unverified for nickname) and About Me accept Unicode. Usernames are restricted to a-z, 0-9, underscore and period, so fancy text only works in display name, not username. Source

Questions

Can I use fancy fonts in a Discord display name?

Yes. Discord's help page says display names can contain special characters and non-Latin characters, up to 32 characters. Styles that add marks above and below letters, such as Glitch, add characters to the count.

Why does my Discord name show as boxes for a friend?

Their device has no font for one of the characters. Styles marked โ€œmay show as boxesโ€ are the likely cause. Pick an unmarked style, or Leet and aLtErNaTiNg, which are plain text.

Does the same text work in About Me?

Yes. About Me allows 190 characters and Discord lists Unicode as allowed. Long styled paragraphs are harder to read, so keep key information in plain text.

Is the limit the same for server nicknames?

The commonly reported cap is 32 characters, matching display names. The Server Nicknames help page states no limit, so we treat that figure as unconfirmed.

Will screen readers read a styled name correctly?

They may read it oddly. Some read each styled letter as a mathematical symbol. A plain-letter server nickname is an option for people who rely on one.
