How to Create a Great Minecraft Faction Name

Minecraft faction names are typically made up of one interesting or cool word, which can make it hard to pin down the perfect choice for your team, but it also gives you an extensive range of options!

Choose the perfect Minecraft faction name using the following tips:

• Keep your name under 10 characters. Minecraft names are only allowed to be up to 10 letters, numbers, or a combination of both. If you like a name longer than 10 characters, look for a shorter synonym or use a trick like removing the vowels.
• Use appropriate language. Any inappropriate and/or derogatory language may cause your Minecraft faction name to be removed. If you have any doubt as to whether your faction name will be accepted, it’s best to choose a different name.
• Brainstorm similar words. If there’s a word you like but aren’t 100% sure about, look for words with the same or similar meanings. Looking up synonyms is a great way to find a unique faction name, as sometimes they are less common. You could even use a word that means the same thing in a different language — for example, “Calamidad” (Spanish) rather than “Calamity” (English).
