I don't think it's possible. If it is, good luck! You'll need to suck up to Habbo staff a hell of a lot ;)!

Only if you have a good reason on why you want it changed then you can by requesting it via the help tool ;).

Its gotta be some major ones though.
The below, they might do..

They might change techremix to TechRemix
But they also do it if they got the time as well.

For instance, if your name in unacceptable to the Habbo Way they'll offer you a name change.

They used to give them in extremly rare situations

Aint heard of anyone getting one recently, so they may have stopped

yes rob but a lot of games offer name changes and they don't have problems. i'm sure MODs would still be able to track following a name change.

when i joined, my name was techremix then after 1-2 years.
I emailed them and said if they could do it to TechRemix, then they emailed saying we do it in our free time, then after 1-5 days i got the name change.

Yeah so they changed the case of your name. But do they change your actual name on request? Also, who did you email? Support team?

I don't understand why they would hand out name requests though. If they did then surely it would be advertised somewhere...

I got mine changed not long ago, but it wasn't by request.. it was cos it was unnaceptable. ;s

I couldn't thinm of anything I wanted, they wouldn't allow me a name that had already been used or a name with _><*% etc in, cos a month or so befre mine some dude got his changed to "<3" so I'd thought it was worth a try. ;p

I ended up getting it changed to danny.txt lol, couldn't think of out. I re-created Ifu though and it hasn't been emailed or banned etc.. ;s.

Once you have made a Habbo account you cannot change the name of that account yourself. If you want an account with a different name then you should create a new account and transfer any Furni and items to it yourself

PLEASE NOTE: Habbo can in very rare circumstances offer account name changes, but this is only done when the Habbo in question has registered an unacceptable name. Other name changes will NOT be performed, sorry.

I think they only do name changes with people getting harassed with the name they currently have. I remember that Laxativepolo had his name changed because he kept getting harassed.

is that true?!

what sort of reason? :O
If you get bullied about the name or if it's inapropiate / close to an staffs name.

The FAQ's lie , you can get name changes , several people have gotten them in the past.

I emailed staff about 12 months back and they said they won't change a name unless it's un-acceptable. And mostly they just ban those.

at least i don't spend all my money on virtual furniture and all my life on a silly game :).

EDIT: ClubTropica let you change your username for so many islas. Maybe Habbo should impliment something like this? I was thinking that they could maybe let you change your username once every 6/12 months?.

Atleast I don't :rolleyes:

Not sure if you've looked at my signature really? If you're saying 75p is all of my money then you are definately an unusual child if you think 75p is all of somebodies money. Even if I did spent alot, it would because I can. I just choose not to.

if you're honest and have a decent reason i dont see why you shouldn't be allowed one

a friend had a name change years ago, not because she was being harassed or anything but because she was now an adult and had matured and wanted her habbo name to reflect that
