Discord allows you to set your own name. Nicks are officially released in for everyone

Today, many people have woken up to the possibility of setting their own name.


Discord says that the ability to give themselves names will be released over the next few weeks, while many people can already set their own names. At first, it seemed that the main factor was the date of account creation, but no, it’s not likely to be about that.

Even with us, it appeared on accounts from 2015 as much as those from 2022. So it doesn’t really matter. Maybe it’s about Nitro, but also Discord doesn’t officially write anything about it. So one can only guess at it.

What does the notification look like?

Entering the application, you see an automatic pop-up notification regarding setting yourself a new name. The process is not complicated, just select it and confirm.

It’s all very simple and easy to go through the process. It is not known how many people got the opportunity to set a name for themselves today, but it is worth making sure you have the latest version of Discord on your device. The messenger itself points out that this is very important in this case.

In case anyone is completely unfamiliar – Discord is doing away with names that include digits in the username. Now everyone is to have their own unique, unrepeatable name. So there will no longer be a situation where you will see two nicks that are the same. Of course, you can still use numbers, but they will be an integral part of the nickname.
