Is it possible to change your username, or whatever the visible name would be to other persons?

Globally: Settings -> Account -> Click on your name
On server to server basis: Servers -> [Right click on the bookmark to the server you want to change the name for] -> Edit -> Identity (you can set up these in Settings -> Identities)

You change the name in your client.

There are several ways to change your username:

TS3

When you are already connected:

Double clock your name to temporarily change the displayed name:

TS5

When you are already connected:

Right click on your name in the server tree to open the context menu.
On the top right click on the pencil icon to change the current username:

Press Enter to keep the changes

Before you connect:

This is not possible in TeamSpeak 5 - the identity name will be used!

In your bookmarks:

Right click the bookmark and select Edit.
There you can just enter the desired nickname and save it by pressing anywhere.

Of the hole identity (globally)

Open the settings (next to the search bar) -> go to Identities.
Select the identity you want to change and enter the new nickname:

The account name (e.g. used for the new chat feature)

Open the settings (next to the search bar) -> go to Account.
Enter the new nickname next to the client icon in the top left corner:

Website

It is (currently) not possible to even change the account name on the myteamspeak website.

I hope this covered all possible ways to change the nickname anywhere :slight_smile:

I have had TS3 and my account for a while now and all of a sudden TS3 is refusing to display Nickname and Displays Client Name. even creating a new account it will not display Nickname. have added nickname on TS3 site and still no joy?

How can i have it so in game it only shows my nickname and not the client name?
