There are over 1,000 three-letter words in English,[1] giving plenty of options for clans seeking a three-letter name.
The most common three-letter words are things like “the,” “and,” and “but.”[2]
These might not seem like the most exciting team names, but there are also more unique options like “ere” (meaning “before”) and “lux” (a measure of illumination).[3]
You can also create an acronym from any three-letter word or three-word phrase to add more significance to your team name!
Three-letter clan names are short, but can still hold a lot of meaning for your group.
Below, we list 60+ three-letter clan names for you to choose from, or you can use our tips beneath the list to create new tag ideas of your own.

How to Create a Good Three-Letter Clan Name
Create a good three-letter clan tag using the following tips:
- Look up three-letter words. You might find a three-letter word that works well on its own, an unusual word with a meaning that resonates with you, or a word that happens to match the acronym of your favorite motto or phrase. You don’t necessarily have to use a dictionary to find the perfect word — you can think of songs you like that have three-letter words in their titles, for example.
- Base your clan name on your three favorite things. Make a list of the things you love — perhaps your pet, your favorite color, a favorite number, or anything that you want to feature. Choose three things of one type (e.g., three colors) or mix and match. List the three items, then use their first letters to create your team name by arranging them in the order of your choice.
- Use your first, middle, and last name. If you don’t have a middle name, you can choose a random word to use in the middle. You can also use nicknames. Be creative and think out-of-the-box instead of just using your given name for a truly unique clan name.
- Choose your three favorite letters or three random letters and create a name. Think of three letters that are completely random, then create the phrase to complete your three-letter clan name. If you get stuck, you can use a dictionary (in book form or online) to find words that correspond with the random letters you choose.
