How To Change Your Username On Discord
Changing your username on Discord is a simple process and can be done directly through the mobile app or the desktop/browser version. This guide explains how to update both your username and *display name*, clarifying the difference between the two so you can personalize your identity across Discord servers.
First, open the Discord app on your mobile device and log into your account. Tap your profile icon located at the bottom-right corner of the screen to access the “User Settings” menu.
To change your *display name*—which is what most people see in servers—tap on "Edit Profile." Here you’ll find a field labeled "Display Name." This is customizable and can be updated at any time, depending on server settings. Enter your preferred name, then tap "Save" to apply the changes. This display name is only visible in servers that support custom names and is not your universal username.
To change your actual username (the one with the “@” symbol and a unique identifier), scroll further down in the profile settings and tap on the pencil icon next to your current username. Enter the new username you'd like to use. You’ll also need to enter your account password to confirm the change. If the username is already taken, Discord will prompt you to choose another one or may assign a new discriminator (the four-digit number following your username).
If you don’t see the option to edit your username in the mobile app, you can use the desktop or browser version at [https://discord.com](https://discord.com). Simply log in, go to "User Settings" "My Account," and click the "Edit" button next to your username.
Note: Discord has recently updated to a single-username system for some users, which may remove the discriminator. If that’s the case, your username must be globally unique.
