3-letter Riot IDs

Short names are never taken on League: Riot adds a #tagline, so any of these works. Tap to copy. Free, no credits used.

If Riot says that exact tagline is in use, keep the name and change the tagline.

League of Legends name rules

Your League name is a Riot ID: a game name, a hash and a tagline, like GankReaper#JGL. The same ID follows you into Valorant and Teamfight Tactics. Riot takes it only if it fits these rules, and every name from this generator does.

  • Length

    A game name of 3 to 16 characters.

6 tips for choosing a League of Legends name

Your Riot ID shows on every scoreboard in three games and stays for at least 90 days. These tips help it hold up in all of them.

  1. Write it for three games

    Since 2023 your name is a Riot ID, and it follows you into Valorant and Teamfight Tactics. A League-only joke reads oddly the first time you queue for something else.

  2. Let the tagline do some work

    The tagline makes the pair unique, so the game name can be a clean word that was long gone as a summoner name. A tag that echoes the name reads as part of it.

    Try
  3. Stay readable on the scoreboard

    Teammates read your name mid-fight, in small type, while they decide whether to follow your engage. A name that needs a second look costs you pings.

  4. Don't name yourself after one champion

    Champions get reworked, nerfed and banned, and a free change only comes every 90 days. Name your role or your style instead.

    Try
  5. Keep it report-proof

    Riot ID game names and taglines can't be offensive, and an edgy one draws reports in a game with plenty of them. Distinctive costs you nothing. Provocative can cost you the name.

    Instead ofTiltYourTeam#RAGE
    Try
  6. Match names with your duo

    Riot IDs make pairs easy: share a game name and split the tagline, or take two halves of one idea. Numbered copies of the same name say nothing about either of you.

League of Legends name questions

A Riot ID is a game name of 3 to 16 characters, then a # and a tagline of 3 to 5 letters or digits. The whole ID must be unique, and neither part can be offensive. Every name here fits those limits.

Riot retired summoner names in 2023 and replaced them with Riot IDs, which are shared across League of Legends, Valorant and Teamfight Tactics. Names are no longer unique per server. The tagline makes each one unique instead.

The short part after the # in your Riot ID: 3 to 5 letters or digits. It starts as your region code, like EUW or NA1, and once you change it you can't go back to one. Because the tagline makes the pair unique, it lets you use a game name someone else already has.

Yes, that is the point of the Riot ID. One name covers League, Valorant and Teamfight Tactics on the same account, which is why it is worth picking one that does not sound wrong in any of them.

On your Riot Account page at account.riotgames.com, or in the League client: open the Shop, then Account, then the Riot ID Change offer. It's free once every 90 days, and Riot sells no extra changes.
