Can I change my Fortnite username?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, players have the ability to change their Fortnite username, but there are certain conditions and limitations to keep in mind. Fortnite usernames are tied to the Epic Games account, and users can make a change through the Epic Games website. Normally, players are allowed to change their username once every two weeks. It is important to choose a username that adheres to the community guidelines, as inappropriate names may not be permitted. To change the username, players can log in to their Epic Games account on the official website, navigate to the account settings, and look for the section related to account information. There, users will find the option to update their display name. It may take some time for the new username to reflect across all platforms. For up-to-date instructions or further information, it is advisable to check the relevant sections on the Epic Games website.
