How To Get Colored Name Clash Royale

Hey there, fellow Clashers! So, you've been eyeing those fancy, colorful names in the arena and thinking, "Man, how do I get my name to pop like that?" You're not alone! It’s like wanting a superhero cape for your in-game avatar. Trust me, I’ve been there. Staring at my plain old white name while everyone else’s is a rainbow explosion… it’s enough to make you want to rage quit (but don't, we're all about positive vibes here!).
Well, good news! It's actually super easy once you know the secret handshake. No, seriously, it’s not some mystical ritual or a forgotten prophecy whispered by the Goblin Barrel. It’s all about using some neat little codes. Think of it as adding a splash of paint to your digital signature. Let’s dive in and make your name the star of the show!
The Magical Color Codes You Need
Alright, so the magic word here is formatting. We’re going to be using some special characters to tell Clash Royale, "Hey, make this bit of text a different color!" It's like giving the game a secret instruction manual for your name. Pretty cool, right? Don't worry if you're not a tech wizard; this is way simpler than assembling IKEA furniture. Or, you know, facing a fully-leveled Mega Knight with a Royal Giant behind him. Shudders.
The key character we’re going to be using is the less-than sign (`<`), followed by a special code, and then the greater-than sign (`>`). It’s like a tiny little portal that changes the color of whatever comes after it. We'll also need to use the closing tag, which is similar but with a forward slash (`/`) inside. Think of it as closing the portal after you’re done with that color.
Let's Talk Colors!
So, what colors can we actually use? Clash Royale is a bit picky, but it’s got a good range for you. We can get vibrant blues, fiery reds, sunny yellows, lush greens, and even some cool purples and oranges. Each color has its own special code. It’s like a secret color palette just for your username!
Here’s a little cheat sheet. Keep this handy, maybe tattoo it on your forehead (okay, maybe just save it to your notes app). These are the color codes you’ll be using:
- Red: `
` - Orange: `
` - Yellow: `
` - Green: `
` - Blue: `
` - Purple: `
` - Pink: `
` - Light Blue: `
` - Light Green: `
` - Light Yellow: `
` - Light Orange: `
` - Light Purple: `
` - White: `
` (Yep, even white has a code! Though your name is white by default, so it’s kinda redundant unless you’re using it for the end of a colored section.)
See? A whole spectrum of awesomeness awaits! Now, how do we actually use these codes to color our names? Glad you asked, curious cat!
Putting the Codes to Work: Coloring Your Name
This is where the fun really begins. Let’s say you want your name to be a dazzling blue. Remember the code for blue? It’s `
<c5>YourNameHere

But wait! If you do that, your entire name will be blue. What if you want to highlight just a part of your name? Or what if you want a name with multiple colors, like a majestic, multi-colored dragon? (Now that’s an emote idea, Supercell, you reading this?)
This is where the closing tag comes in handy. The closing tag is just the code with a forward slash `/` in front of the `c`. So, for blue, the closing tag is ``. Here’s how you’d make just the first part of your name blue, and the rest white (or the default color):
<c5>YourName</c5>Part2
In this example, "YourName" would appear in blue, and "Part2" would be the default white. Pretty neat, huh? You can mix and match these codes to create all sorts of cool effects.
Example Time! Let’s Get Creative
Let’s try a few more examples to really drive this home. Imagine you want your name to be:
- "LegendaryKing" in a vibrant green.
You'd type:

<c4>LegendaryKing</c4>
Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! (And if you can make a lemon squeezy in Clash Royale, you're a legend in my book.)
- "ProPlayer" with "Pro" in red and "Player" in yellow.
This is where we combine codes. You’ll start with red, close it, and then open yellow.
<c1>Pro</c1><c3>Player</c3>
Voila! "Pro" will be red, and "Player" will be yellow. Look at you, you're practically a Clash Royale Picasso!
- "AwesomeDude" where "Awesome" is blue and "Dude" is purple.
Similar to the last one, just with different colors:

<c5>Awesome</c5><c6>Dude</c6>
You're getting the hang of this! It's like learning a new language, but instead of conjugating verbs, you're conjugating colors. Much more satisfying, if you ask me.
What About Spaces and Special Characters?
Okay, now for a slight snag. If you want to use spaces within your colored name, you need to be careful. For example, if you try to do `
The workaround for this is to use the HTML entity for a space, which is ` `. So, if you want a blue name that says "My Cool Name," you'd type:
<c5>My Cool Name</c5>
This tells Clash Royale, "Hey, that's a space, treat it as such, but keep the color going!" It's a bit of a mouthful to type, I know, but it's the most reliable way to get spaces into your colored names. Think of it as the secret handshake for spaces!

What about other special characters like emojis? Well, those are generally a no-go when combined with color codes. Stick to letters and numbers for the best results. We’re aiming for a rainbow name, not a chaotic emoji explosion. Though, a "Clowny Face" emote in a bright red name… hmm, maybe that’s a thought for another day!
The "How-To" Steps: Your Grand Finale
Ready to put it all together? Here's a step-by-step guide to get your colorful moniker in the game:
- Open Clash Royale. This is the obvious first step. You can't color your name if you're not in the game, silly!
- Go to your Profile. Tap on your player avatar in the top-left corner of the main screen. This is where you manage your gamer identity.
- Tap the Settings Gear. You'll see a little gear icon somewhere on your profile screen. This is the gateway to all things profile-related.
- Find the "Change Name" Option. It's usually pretty obvious. If it’s not, squint a bit harder. Sometimes it’s hiding behind a giant Electro Dragon.
- Enter Your New Name with Codes. This is the crucial part. Type your desired name, carefully inserting the color codes and closing tags where you want them. Remember to use ` ` for spaces if needed. For example, to get "EliteWarrior" in orange, you'd type:
<c2>EliteWarrior</c2>. - Confirm and Pay the Gems (if applicable). Changing your name usually costs a small amount of gems, especially if you've changed it before. This is Clash Royale’s way of saying, "Yep, you're serious about that fancy name!" The first name change is usually free, so if you haven’t changed it yet, you’re in luck!
And boom! You’re done. You’ve successfully transformed your plain name into a vibrant masterpiece. Go show it off in a friendly battle or two. Watch as your opponents’ eyes widen with admiration (or maybe a little confusion, which is also fun).
A Word of Caution (Just a Little One!)
While these color codes are awesome, use them responsibly. Don't go making your name impossible to read with clashing colors or excessive formatting. The goal is to stand out, not to give everyone a headache. Also, Supercell could theoretically change how these codes work in a future update, though it's unlikely. For now, enjoy the colorful glory!
And remember, if you’re looking to change your name for free, you typically get one free change. After that, it’s gem time. So, if you're still rocking the default name, this is your golden opportunity to make it spectacular without spending any precious gems. Score!
