How to change name in BGMI and PUBG Mobile

The steps below come from the way third-party guides describe the screens. We have not opened the game for this page, so we show no screenshots and name no game version; check each step on your own phone before you spend a card.

  1. Open PUBG Mobile or BGMI and go to your profile from the avatar on the lobby screen.
  2. Find the option to edit the in-game name (the pen or “change name” button) and tap it.
  3. Type the new name, or paste a styled name that you copied from the list below.
  4. Confirm. The game asks for a name change card; guides say it can come from a first-time reward, an event, or the in-game store.

Name change card

A name change card is the item the game asks for when you rename your character. Guides name the same three ways to get one: a sign-in or first-time reward, an event reward, or the in-game store. Prices and event dates change, so this page quotes none; open the store in your game to see what a card costs today.

Tested and not tested

Every number on this page is a character count measured by script on 5 October 2026 on the exact text you copy. We have not tested these names inside PUBG Mobile or BGMI ourselves, because we have no game account to try them with, so no item is marked as accepted by the game, and we give no screenshots, game version, rename-card price or name-length rule. If the name box refuses a name, shorten it or try a plainer symbol. PUBGSymbol is independent and not affiliated with Krafton, Tencent or Meta.

Questions people ask

What is a name change card in BGMI?

It is the in-game item that lets you rename your character. Guides say you can get one from rewards, events or the store; check the current way in your game.

How do I change my name in BGMI?

Open your profile, choose the edit-name option, type or paste the new name and confirm with a card, as the steps above describe.

Can I use symbols in a new BGMI name?

Styled names are plain Unicode text, but whether the game keeps a symbol depends on its own rules. We have not tested them in the game, so try a short name first.

Is changing the name free?

We state no price or free-change rule because we have not checked them in the game or on an official page.
