Server nickname tips
- Add your role or timezone so others know when you’re around: “Kabir | IST”, “Riya ✦ Mod”.
- Use pronouns or a game rank if your server likes that: “Ash [Diamond]”.
- Avoid invisible characters and heavy Zalgo text. Many servers ban names that are hard to mention or read.
Server owners can make channel and role names fancy too. Find dividers and icons in our symbols library and expressive faces in Lenny faces.
Naming channels and roles
Server owners can use the same fonts and symbols for channel names and roles. A short emoji at the start of each channel (📢 announcements, 🎮 lfg, 🎨 art) makes a server easy to scan.
Discord name FAQ
Can I use fancy fonts in my Discord username?
No. Usernames are limited to lowercase letters, numbers, periods and underscores. Put fancy fonts in your display name or server nickname instead.
How do I change my nickname in one server?
Open the server, tap or right-click your name in the member list and choose to edit your server profile or nickname.
Why can’t others mention me easily?
Styled letters are different characters from normal ones, so autocomplete may not find them. Keep a plain word in your display name to stay mentionable.
