Can You Change Your Animal Crossing Name?
Nope, once you've set your name in Animal Crossing, that's the name your character is stuck with for the life of your game. Choose wisely, or you might end up being called something silly like 'Buttercup' for eternity!

Actually, no. You can't change your character's name in Animal Crossing after you've made your choice. It's one of those 'set it and forget it' kind of deals. So, make sure you're really happy with your name from the get-go!
Unlike your island's name or the design of your face, your name is permanent. Choose with care!
