How to change your TikTok name to a stylish one
- Type your name above. Styles are checked against TikTok's 30-character nickname limit.
- Copy a style. The Aesthetic filter is a favourite for TikTok profiles.
- In TikTok, open Profile, tap Edit profile, then Name. Paste and save.
TikTok has two names. Your Name (nickname) can use stylish fonts and symbols. Your @username can only use letters, numbers, underscores and periods. TikTok also limits how often you can change your name, so pick one you'll keep.

Make your TikTok profile match
- Use the same styled name on Instagram so people recognise you across apps.
- Style one line of your bio with the font changer. A whole bio in fancy fonts is hard to read.
- Add one emoji or symbol that fits your content: ๐ณ for food, ๐ฎ for gaming, โ for travel. Grab more from our symbols page.
Will people still find me in search?
TikTok search mainly uses your @username, which stays plain, so a stylish display name doesn't hide you. Keep your real name or brand somewhere in plain text too (in the username or bio) so people searching for it can find you.

Frequently asked questions
How long can a TikTok name be?
Your TikTok name (nickname) can be up to 30 characters. The badge on each style shows whether it fits.
Can I use fancy fonts in my TikTok username?
No. The @username only allows letters, numbers, underscores and periods. Use stylish fonts in the Name field.
Why does TikTok say I can't change my name?
TikTok limits how often you can change your name. Wait until the app allows another change, then paste your new style.
Do stylish names show for everyone on TikTok?
They show correctly on most modern phones. Styles with a "check app" tag may show as boxes for some viewers.
