Custom Names Mod (1.21.6, 1.20.6) lets you assign personalized display names to players in your Minecraft world. Whether you’re trying to remember who’s who on a busy server or simply want to have some fun with nicknames, this mod allows you to replace usernames with custom names that appear in the chat and player list just for you.
With a simple, user-friendly graphical interface (GUI), you can set names for any player based on their Minecraft username. These custom names are only visible to you and do not affect gameplay or server functionality, making it a purely cosmetic and client-side enhancement.

Features:
- Assign Custom Names – Rename any player on the server using their actual Minecraft username.
- Client-Side Only – Does not affect other players; names are local to your game client.
- Chat & UI Integration – Custom names appear in chat, player list, and other text displays.
- GUI-Based Configuration – Easily manage names through an intuitive interface.
- Mod Mod Menu – Seamless integration with the Mod Menu mod for quick access.

Why Use Custom Names?
- Better Roleplay – Great for RPG servers or storytelling where names like “Captain Leo” or “Blacksmith Tom” fit better than usernames.
- Organization – Helpful for sorting players into roles (e.g., “Builder”, “Farmer”) or simply remembering who’s who on a large server.
- Personalization – Adds a personal touch to your multiplayer experience.
Whether you’re managing a small group or customizing your roleplay world, this mod gives you full control over how players are identified in your client.
