How to Choose the Right Name

Check your main game tag limit first, then choose a name that still looks good when shortened.

Choose a name that fits your team’s purpose, activity, or personality.

Say the name out loud the way teammates will use it in callouts, if it is clumsy it will get replaced.

Choose a name that fits your team’s purpose, activity, or personality.

Pick a tone your whole roster can own, especially if your clan mixes casual and ranked players.

Choose a name that fits your team’s purpose, activity, or personality.

Avoid names that are too close to popular teams or common clan words, you want something searchable and distinct.

Choose a name that fits your team’s purpose, activity, or personality.

Common Naming Mistakes

Choosing a name that is too long, then the tag becomes the real identity and the full name gets ignored.

Using special characters or hard spelling that looks messy in leaderboards and is annoying to type.

Mixing styles in one name, half serious and half joke, which makes it hard to represent.

Picking something tied to one moment or one person, then the name stops fitting when the roster changes.

A good clan name makes your group easier to recognize in lobbies, brackets, and friend lists, and it gives teammates a shared label that feels consistent.
