However, Roblox has announced that they are testing this feature once more. So if you ever wanted to change your username, now is your chance
If you haven’t yet, make sure to get Roblox for your Windows PC or mobile device and start exploring.
How to Change Display Name on Roblox
Step 1: Log in to Roblox
Log in to Roblox on your chosen device, either pc or mobile.

Step 2: Click on the Gear or Settings Icon
Access your settings through the gear icon. On your mobile device, you will first need to tap on the three dots on the bottom right of your screen.

Step 3: Go to ‘Account Info’
Click on ‘Account Info’ and change your username. Changing your display name is free and will not cost any Robux.
A few important points to note are that you can only change your username for free once every seven days, and your new display name will be verified and approved by the Roblox filters before the change is finalized. Also, you will not be able to delete any of your usernames, and other players will still be able to see your previous names if they choose. If you do not set a display name, then your username will be displayed by default.

Change, Update, and Play
As you can see, changing your display name is an effortless procedure. As long as players use the feature responsibly and follow the rules, there is no reason why you cannot show some creativity and change your name in Roblox. If you need some help getting started with Roblox, we have you covered with this handy guide to the basics of Roblox.
