Format

Pick a vibe and generate a first batch.

Clean and tryhard

Short, easy to say on comms, no numbers. The kind of name that looks right at the top of a scoreboard.

Funny

Names that get a reaction in agent select. Most of them are confessions.

Agent mains

For players who lock the same agent every game and want the lobby to know before the round starts.

Soft and aesthetic

Lowercase, calm, a little dreamy. They pair well with a matching tagline.

Short (3 to 5 letters)

Quick to type, quick to call out. Short names go fast, so add a tagline that makes yours unique.

Duo names

Matching pairs for two players who queue together. Take one each.

Names by rank

One for every rank, from the honest to the hopeful. Click a name to copy it.

Tagline ideas

The tagline is the part after the #. It takes 3 to 5 letters or numbers, and it does not have to be unique.

How a Riot ID works

Your Valorant name is a Riot ID: a game name, a hash sign and a tagline, as in Whiff Lord#1TAP. Other players see the game name in the lobby and on the scoreboard. The tagline only appears when someone adds you as a friend or looks you up on a tracker.

Because only the full combination has to be unique, common names are still available: you just need a tagline nobody else paired with it. The tagline list above gives you fifty to try.

Choosing a name you will keep

A name change is free but limited to one every 90 days at the time of writing, so it is worth a minute of thought.

  • Say it out loud. Teammates will shorten it on voice chat. Kestrel becomes “Kes”, xX_Dark_Xx becomes “you, the Jett”.
  • Avoid a name tied to one agent unless you really are a one-trick. Jett Lagged is funny until you get filled on Sage for a month.
  • Check the scoreboard length. Names near 16 characters get tight on the scoreboard and on kill banners. Ten or fewer reads best.
  • Keep it clean. Offensive names get reported, and Riot forces a rename.

Duo names

For a duo, pick a pair that only makes sense together: Flash and Bang, Entry and Trade, Plant and Defuse. Each half must work as a name on its own, because your duo will not always be online. Matching taglines, such as #DUO, finish the set.

Names with symbols and fonts

If you want decoration around a name, the symbols page lists characters by category and the font generator converts a name into styled letters. Riot filters many of them out of Riot IDs, but they work in Discord names, tracker bios and stream overlays.

Once the name is set, announce it properly: the text art generator turns it into a block-letter banner for the chat. And to finish the profile, pick a crosshair code in a color that matches it.

Questions players ask

How long can a Valorant name be?

A Riot ID has two parts. The game name takes 3 to 16 characters and the tagline, the part after the #, takes 3 to 5 letters or numbers. Every idea on this page fits those limits.

Does my Valorant name have to be unique?

No. Only the combination of name and tagline has to be unique. If Kairo#EUW is taken, Kairo#ACE may be free. That is why a good tagline matters as much as the name.

How often can I change my Valorant name?

At the time of writing, Riot allows one free Riot ID change every 90 days. The change is made on your Riot account page, not in the game, and the page shows the date of your next available change.

Can I use symbols or special fonts in my name?

Riot IDs accept letters and numbers from many alphabets, and spaces, but refuse most symbols. Some styled letters pass and some do not. Try the name on the Riot account page before you commit: it tells you at once if a character is refused.

Will my name change apply to other Riot games?

Yes. The Riot ID is shared by Valorant, League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics and the other Riot games. Changing it once changes it everywhere.
