Forced Name Change?

Hi, I am an old player that quit for a while at the end of forsaken. My old username came from my D1 account on xbox. It was an xbox auto generated username that I kept when I switched to steam from xbox. The name was TipsyDonut63 with capitals thrown in everywhere. When I returned to the game a couple weeks ago my name had been changed to Guardian8753 and I am unable to change my actual username or display name. I don't have a clue what happened but this is really annoying and I was hoping there would be a way to fix it. I would like my old name back. Thanks in advance!

  • Hey there. When cross play launched, the new Bungie name system was implemented: [quote]we're converting everyone's name over to an identity that will remain consistent across all platforms you play from. We’re calling this your Bungie Name. While this will cause a one-time naming reshuffle, we feel this is better for everyone in the long run. Here’s how Bungie Names will work and look: "Bungie Name": PlayerName#1234 "Display Name": PlayerName "Hash": # "Numeric ID": 1234 ... If your name ends up empty or includes a moderated term, you will find the quite unremarkable “Guardian[Random Number]” name over your character’s head. While we won’t have a name change feature at launch, we are working diligently to get you an early version of this feature this winter. [/quote] https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/50506 So a name change feature will most likely become available later this winter.

    • Unfortunately the system might of detected something wrong in the name. Don’t worry though, the name change feature should be available later this season.
