Craftable Name Tag Mod (1.21.7, 1.20.1) – Crafting Recipe for Name Tags

Q: Which mod loaders are supported?

The mod supports Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge, so it can be used in most modern modpacks.

The Craftable Name Tag Mod (1.21.7, 1.20.1) solves a frustrating limitation in vanilla Minecraft: the inability to craft name tags. In the base game, name tags can only be found in loot chests or while fishing, making them unreasonably rare for such a simple item. This mod fixes that by introducing a straightforward and affordable crafting recipe for name tags.

Available for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge, this mod is perfect for players who want more convenient access to name tags in Survival, especially when managing pets, mobs, villagers, or armor stands. No more dungeon crawling just to name your dog.

Why use Craftable Name Tag Mod?

In vanilla Minecraft, name tags are treated as rare treasures — but functionally, they serve a utility role rather than a progression role. You shouldn’t have to spend hours raiding dungeons just to name your pet wolf or mark a villager.

Craftable Name Tag Mod respects the game’s balance while removing unnecessary tedium. With a simple recipe added to the crafting table, you get immediate access to name tags as soon as you need them, keeping gameplay flowing and frustration low.
