Find Snapchat names - the best ideas
If you no longer like your current Snapchat name, you can change it. However, finding a name that is still available is not that easy. We show you here how you can best search for names.
Change username on Snapchat on Android and iOS
You cannot change your user without completely deleting your account. However, Snapchat allows you to replace the name that is shown to other users.
- Start Snapchat on your smartphone.
- Then tap your account button in the lower right corner.
- Now you will see your friend list and at the top the name that is shown to your contacts.
- Select the gear icon and go to "Edit Name".
- Here you can enter your new nickname and apply it with "Save".
Find a new ad name for Snapchat
- If your desired name has already been taken, you can try to change it slightly using various characters. Underlines, asterisks or dots are suitable for this. Example: Erwin Pokorny becomes _Erwin_Pokorny_ or * ErwinPokorny *.
- If you have a middle name or even a middle name, you can bring it in.
- The variant of using numbers is also popular. The numbers can also stand for letters. This is called Leetspeak. Erwin Pokorny then becomes 3rwin p0k0rny.
- You can also omit vowels or add a suffix. The name could be Erwn Pkrny or Real_Erwn_Pokorny.
- You can find even more names and suggestions with the help of online generators. There are good ideas on, for example, spinxo.com or behindthename.com
