Valve\u2019s listed price is <strong>$1.99 USD<\/strong>; check the amount shown in your own currency before paying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have an unused tag:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open <strong>CS2<\/strong>, then go to <strong>Inventory<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>Name Tag<\/strong> and choose its use option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pick the weapon you want to name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter your chosen name and check the preview.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm the application.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/renaming-skins-in-cs2.webp\" alt=\"renaming skins in cs2\" class=\"wp-image-5921\" style=\"width:800px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/renaming-skins-in-cs2.webp 640w, https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/renaming-skins-in-cs2-512x384.webp 512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tag is consumed when you confirm. Check the spelling and make sure you selected the right item, especially if you own several versions of the same skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also apply a new tag to an already named weapon to replace its current name. You do not need to remove the old name first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Buying tip:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/steamcommunity.com\/games\/CSGO\/announcements\/detail\/616557564382937291\">Valve\u2019s November 12, 2025 update<\/a> made newly purchased Name Tags non-tradable and non-marketable. Buy a tag because you intend to use it, rather than assuming you can sell it afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_remove_a_Name_Tag_in_CS2\"><\/span>How to remove a Name Tag in CS2<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove the name from a weapon you own:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open your <strong>Inventory<\/strong> inside CS2.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the named weapon and open its item menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose <strong>Rename<\/strong>, then <strong>Remove Name<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm the removal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This restores the weapon\u2019s original item name. It does not delete the skin, remove its stickers, or return an unused Name Tag to your inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if you buy an AK-47 | Slate with a nickname you dislike, you can remove the nickname without paying for another tag. You only need a new tag if you want to replace it with your own name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Valve documents the removal process in its <a href=\"https:\/\/help.steampowered.com\/en\/faqs\/view\/5F9C-37F6-508D-2C69\">official Name Tag FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_cant_you_rename_a_skin_or_remove_its_name\"><\/span>Why can\u2019t you rename a skin or remove its name?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_skin_is_Trade_Protected\"><\/span>The skin is Trade Protected<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under <a href=\"https:\/\/help.steampowered.com\/en\/faqs\/view\/365F-4BEE-2AE2-7BDD\">Valve\u2019s Trade Protection rules<\/a>, a skin received through a Steam trade is Trade Protected for seven days. During that period, it cannot be modified, which blocks name changes as well as other customization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the protection notice and expiry on the item. If it is still protected, wait for that timer to finish. Buying another Name Tag will not bypass the restriction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be careful with the wording: a restriction on trading or selling an item is not automatically the same as Trade Protection. Read the actual notice rather than assuming every seven-day timer blocks the same actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our <a href=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/all\/how-to-remove-trade-hold-cs2\/\">CS2 trade hold and Trade Protection guide<\/a> explains the different restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_are_trying_to_customize_a_rented_skin\"><\/span>You are trying to customize a rented skin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rented weapons cannot have Name Tags applied. They are temporary items with customization restrictions, even though you can equip them in matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See our <a href=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/counterpedia\/how-to-rent-skins-cs2\/\">CS2 skin rental guide<\/a> if you are unsure whether the weapon is rented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_are_trying_to_replace_a_name_without_another_tag\"><\/span>You are trying to replace a name without another tag<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Removing a name and changing it are different actions. Removal is free. Replacing it with new text consumes another Name Tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the item is eligible for modification, check that you have an unused tag before trying to apply a new name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Name_Tag_length_and_symbols\"><\/span>Name Tag length and symbols<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CS2 weapon names have a <strong>20-character limit<\/strong>, including spaces. Names cannot begin with a space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Letters, numbers, and supported punctuation are the simplest choices. Check the naming preview before confirming, particularly if you paste symbols or stylized text. A character appearing correctly on a website does not guarantee it will display the same way on the weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep the name readable and follow Steam\u2019s content rules. You cannot freely reposition the physical nameplate to make a long name fit a different part of the gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_renaming_change_the_skin_itself\"><\/span>Does renaming change the skin itself?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A custom name does not change the skin\u2019s finish, pattern, or <a href=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/counterpedia\/cs2-float-guide\/\">float value and wear<\/a>. Renaming a Field-Tested weapon will not make it Factory New.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also does not turn a normal weapon into a StatTrak item. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/game-mechanics\/what-is-stattrak-cs2\/\">guide to StatTrak in CS2<\/a> explains how the kill counter differs from a custom name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For resale, do not assume the cost of a Name Tag adds the same amount to the skin\u2019s value. Choose a name you enjoy using. Applied sticker pricing is a separate question, covered in our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/best-cs-skins\/best-cs-stickers\/do-cs2-stickers-add-value\/\">how stickers affect CS2 skin value<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_a_Name_Tag_stay_on_a_skin_when_you_sell_or_trade_it\"><\/span>Does a Name Tag stay on a skin when you sell or trade it?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes.
