After setting your name during Tamagotchi Plaza's opening cutscene, you won't be able to change it anymore. Check all of our name suggestions below if you run out of name ideas!

Unfortunately, if you already have a name on your Smartphone, you won't be able to change it. The only way to have another name is to restart the game and type your new name.
You will set your name during the game's opening cutscene. By then, you'll meet six Tamagotchi and Prince Tamahiko with the latter asking you to create an account in the Smartphone. In it, you can set your permanent name and birthday. Unfortunately, both of these details can't be changed further in the game.

The game will automatically name you, Youtchi, if you don't want to think too deeply about the name.
