How to Change Your FPL Team Name

Changing your Fantasy Premier League team name takes less than a minute. Log in, open your team details, type a new name of 20 characters or fewer, and save. You can do it as often as you like through the season. Here’s the full step-by-step.

1

Log in to FPL

Go to fantasy.premierleague.com or open the official app and sign in to your account.

2

Open Team Details

On the Points or My Team page, select Team Details — the edit option near your team name.

3

Enter a new name

Type your new name using 20 characters or fewer, including spaces. Longer names won't be accepted.

4

Save it

Hit Update Details. Your new name appears instantly across all your leagues.

💡 Team name vs manager name: your manager name is your real name; your team name is what rivals see on the league table. This guide changes your team name.

Tips for Choosing a Great Fantasy Football Team Name

A great team name does more than fill a box — it sets the tone for your whole season of banter. After years of league chats and gameweek group threads, these are the simple rules that separate a name people remember from one that gets forgotten by Friday.

📏

Keep it under 20 characters

FPL cuts off anything longer, so your clever ending vanishes on the table. Shorter names read cleaner on mobile too, where most managers check the standings. Use the counter in our tool to stay safe.

Build it around a player

The names that land hardest reference a specific star. A pun on your captain or a club legend instantly tells everyone who you back — and it dates your team to the exact season.

😏

Aim for banter, not offence

The best names make the group chat laugh, not wince. Remember FPL filters and can remove genuinely offensive names, with repeat breaches risking your account, so keep it cheeky.

🗣️

Say it out loud first

If it makes you smile when you read it back, it's a keeper. If you have to explain the joke, it's probably too clever for its own good. Simple, punchy and clear wins every time.

    Fantasy Football Team Name Generator — FAQs

    Log in to the Fantasy Premier League website or app, open the Points or My Team page, and select Team Details. Type your new name using 20 characters or fewer, then hit Update Details. The change shows up instantly across all your leagues, and you can do it as often as you like during the season.

    Fantasy Premier League team names are capped at 20 characters, including spaces. Anything longer simply won't save. Every name in our generator shows a live character count so you know it'll fit before you copy it — and the counter flags any name that runs over.

    Yes, completely. Every name is free to use in FPL, ESPN, Yahoo, Sleeper or any other fantasy platform. There's no sign-up, no paywall, and no limit on how many names you can generate or copy.

    Yes. Use the Custom Name Builder, type any player or club, and the tool spins puns and wordplay around it. You can then add emojis or fancy text and copy the finished name with one tap — handy when you want something nobody else in your league will have.

    It can. The Premier League reserves the right to change or remove names it considers offensive, and repeat breaches can lead to account deletion. Our savage names are built to be cheeky banter rather than genuinely offensive, so you stay on the right side of the filters.

    Yes. Switch the generator to NFL mode for names built around the league's biggest quarterbacks, running backs and receivers. They work on ESPN, Yahoo, Sleeper and every major US platform — and since those sites allow longer names, you've got even more room to play with.
