Changing Your Discord Tag Without Nitro: Two Effective Methods

Discord users can personalize their presence by changing tags, but those without Nitro may wonder how to do so affordably. This article outlines two methods for updating your tag without Nitro.

Method 1: Server Permissions

Ask server administrators for permission to modify nicknames. Granting this permission allows you to change your tag by following the usual steps of right-clicking on your username and selecting "Rename."

Method 2: Discord Bot Commands

Utilize bot commands in servers where they’re allowed. Type !setnick <new nickname> into a text channel with bot permissions, replacing <new nickname> with your desired tag.
