How to change your YouTube channel name

  1. Pick a style

    A 50 character channel name limit is commonly reported, and YouTube's profile page gives no length. Choose a style without a “too long” mark.

  2. Open your channel profile

    Open your channel's profile settings and find the name field. YouTube limits name changes to two every 14 days, so check the preview first.

  3. Paste and view

    Paste the copied text, save, and view your channel to confirm every letter shows.

What works on YouTube

YouTube's profile help page gives no length for the channel name or description and refers to the Community Guidelines. 50 characters for the name and 1000 for the description are commonly reported. The video title limit of 100 is also commonly reported, and we did not check it on an official page.

The handle is 3 to 30 characters from A-Z, 0-9 and the symbols underscore, hyphen and period, with shorter limits for some scripts. Other characters trigger extra restrictions, so keep the handle plain.

Channel name, description and titles have no stated character restriction, and community reports say styled text is widely used in them. No official page confirms that. Screen readers may read styled titles oddly, so style a few words instead of the whole title.

YouTube character limits

Fancy text on YouTube: Partly accepted. Handle is 3 to 30 characters, A-Z, 0-9 and _-. , with shorter limits for Han/Hangul and other scripts, and other characters trigger extra restrictions (official), so fancy text is not usable in handles. Channel name, description and titles have no stated character restriction and fancy Unicode is widely used there (unverified). Source
