Name changing in League of Legends on Windows 10 can sometimes be a difficult task, however, in the following article, we have all the details you need to perform this change.
How can I change my League of Legends name?
1. Pre-requisites if you have the same username on multiple servers
- Check all of the accounts that might be blocking each other. If they are all attached to the same email account, you should have received an email listing them out for you.
- Log into your alternate accounts/PBE first on the website, and update them.
- Once all of your primary and secondary accounts are updated (again, don’t forget PBE), log back to your primary account. If you were the only person worldwide with that account name, you should be unblocked, so you shouldn’t get the pop-up anymore.
If you have signed up for League of Legends on multiple servers (including PBE), you will need to make sure that each account has a unique name. By completing the steps above you should be now able to change your Summoner Name.
2. Change the name from Store
- Open the Store and click on the Account button (the profile with gear icon behind it).
- At the bottom of the displayed items list select Summoner Name Change.
- Type in your name and click the button Check Name.
- If your new name is available, select the purchase method (Riot point or Influence points) to complete the name change.
- Your new name will take effect once you log back into PVP.net and the forums.
Note: Any names deemed offensive will be altered by Player Support without a refund.
