How to Change Your Name in Clash Royale (2026)

To change your name in Clash Royale, reach King Level 4, open the menu, choose Settings, tap Change Name, and enter the new name twice. Your first change is free. Later changes cost Gems, and Supercell says the cost increases each time, so check the confirmation screen before approving it.

How to change your Clash Royale name

1. Launch Clash Royale on the account you want to rename.
2. Open the menu in the upper-right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. Tap Change Name.
5. Enter the new name, then enter it again exactly as shown.
6. Review any Gem cost and the spelling before confirming.

The exact button position can move slightly after an interface update, but the official path remains Settings → Change Name. If you are creating a separate profile rather than renaming this one, use the new Clash Royale account guide so both accounts are protected by Supercell ID.

Is changing your Clash Royale name free?

The first change is free. Additional changes require Gems, and the price rises after each change. We do not publish a fixed cost ladder because the value shown inside your account is the authoritative amount and Supercell can change the economy. The confirmation screen appears before any Gems are spent.

Why can't I see the Change Name button?

• Your King Level is below 4: continue normal progression until the feature unlocks.
• You are in the wrong account: verify the player tag before spending Gems.
• The client is outdated: update Clash Royale through the official App Store or Google Play listing.
• A temporary service issue is affecting the menu: restart the app and check Supercell's service channels.
• A moderation action changed the old name: the replacement may still require Gems to change again.

Do not install a modified APK or give another person access to the account to “unlock” the option. Neither method changes the server-side requirement and both add avoidable account risk.

Clash Royale name rules

Official support sets a length of 2–15 characters. Names must not contain offensive, rude or political material, and should not reveal your real name, phone number, address or other personal information. Supercell also warns that emojis, special symbols and some non-Latin characters may display incorrectly or make the name appear invisible.

Pick something readable in clan chat and battle logs. If you need ideas, start with the principles in our Clash Royale beginner guide: clarity and consistency are more useful than a decorative name that teammates cannot type.

Does a name change affect Supercell ID?

No. Your in-game player name is not the account's login credential. A rename does not replace the linked Supercell ID, player tag, progress or purchases. It also does not transfer the account to a different email address.

Before switching devices, confirm the correct Supercell ID is connected and save the player tag somewhere private. Never send a verification code to someone offering a name-change service.

Frequently asked questions

Can Supercell change my name for free?

Official support says it does not change names on request. Use the in-game option and the price shown there.

Can two players use the same name?

Player names are not the unique account identifier; the player tag is. Similar or identical display names can therefore exist.

Can I change my clan name the same way?

No. The player-name control changes only your profile name. Clan management follows separate rules.
