You no longer go by Tav? Well, this is awkward. That\u2019s right, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans: You can finally change your name after leaving the character creator in Larian Studios\u2019 hit RPG. Thanks to Hotfix #9 released on Oct. 6, 2023, the process of selecting a new name is fairly simple. But you'll need to know exactly where to go before your companions start calling you something different. Here\u2019s how to change your name in BG3. How to rename your character in BG3 To change your name in BG3 after leaving the character creator, follow these steps: First, head to camp. On PC, you can visit your camp by either opening the map and clicking the Camp waypoint at the top-right corner of the screen or by clicking on the campfire icon to the right of the ability bar and choosing the last option. If you\u2019re playing on console, open your menu wheel (right trigger on controller) and select the campfire icon. Once you\u2019re in your camp, look around for a glowing mirror. Because the campsite changes depending on which map you\u2019re currently in, the mirror\u2019s location may change, so you'll likely have to run around the camp to find it. After you\u2019ve located the Magic Mirror, simply interact with it. Find the \"Rename character\" option in the \"General\" menu, as shown in the image below. Type in your new name and hit \"Confirm\" at the bottom of the screen. The Magic Mirror takes you back to the character creator screen, allowing you to alter certain aspects of your character, like hairstyle, tattoos, scars, and more. Some characteristics, like race and background, won\u2019t be changeable, however. If you\u2019d like to change your class, you\u2019ll need to speak to Withers. This customization screen allows you to further roleplay to your heart\u2019s desire, changing your character\u2019s look to match the events of your playthrough. Had a tough battle and want your appearance to reflect it? Add a scar or two. Has your character matured after making difficult decisions? Those fine lines can add a seasoned look to any visage. How many times can you change your name in BG3? You\u2019ll be able to change your name as many times as you\u2019d like by following the above steps at the Magic Mirror. If you're feeling spunky enough, you could change your name after every fight, and the same goes for appearance. I've changed my character's hairstyle several times by now and even added new piercings to freshen things up.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Baldurs-Gate-3-How-to-change-your-name-in-BG3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/986857"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1723"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=986857"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/986857\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1471827,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/986857\/revisions\/1471827"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1471817"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=986857"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=986857"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

You no longer go by Tav? Well, this is awkward. That\u2019s right, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans: You can finally change your name after leaving the character creator in Larian Studios\u2019 hit RPG. Thanks to Hotfix #9 released on Oct. 6, 2023, the process of selecting a new name is fairly simple. But you'll need to know exactly where to go before your companions start calling you something different. Here\u2019s how to change your name in BG3. How to rename your character in BG3 To change your name in BG3 after leaving the character creator, follow these steps: First, head to camp. On PC, you can visit your camp by either opening the map and clicking the Camp waypoint at the top-right corner of the screen or by clicking on the campfire icon to the right of the ability bar and choosing the last option. If you\u2019re playing on console, open your menu wheel (right trigger on controller) and select the campfire icon. Once you\u2019re in your camp, look around for a glowing mirror. Because the campsite changes depending on which map you\u2019re currently in, the mirror\u2019s location may change, so you'll likely have to run around the camp to find it. After you\u2019ve located the Magic Mirror, simply interact with it. Find the \"Rename character\" option in the \"General\" menu, as shown in the image below. Type in your new name and hit \"Confirm\" at the bottom of the screen. The Magic Mirror takes you back to the character creator screen, allowing you to alter certain aspects of your character, like hairstyle, tattoos, scars, and more. Some characteristics, like race and background, won\u2019t be changeable, however. If you\u2019d like to change your class, you\u2019ll need to speak to Withers. This customization screen allows you to further roleplay to your heart\u2019s desire, changing your character\u2019s look to match the events of your playthrough. Had a tough battle and want your appearance to reflect it? Add a scar or two. Has your character matured after making difficult decisions? Those fine lines can add a seasoned look to any visage. How many times can you change your name in BG3? You\u2019ll be able to change your name as many times as you\u2019d like by following the above steps at the Magic Mirror. If you're feeling spunky enough, you could change your name after every fight, and the same goes for appearance. I've changed my character's hairstyle several times by now and even added new piercings to freshen things up.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Baldurs-Gate-3-How-to-change-your-name-in-BG3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/986857"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1723"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=986857"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/986857\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1471827,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/986857\/revisions\/1471827"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1471817"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=986857"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=986857"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=986857"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
