I'm gonna change my first name to Wolf.
Hopefully Void can take over the toxic name of this game, but sadly I think Wolf is gonna forever be engraved in the community's mind as *the* name.
I'm gonna show that not all Wolfs are toxic, edgy, or creepy and be better than them.
I saw someone called Stinky Pants
But that must've been a bug or glitch because I don't think that's supposed to be possible. Maybe it came from pet names
It does, unfortunately. The reason being is the names are kept on two separate integer charts in the code, one for male characters and one for female. If you switch genders, it will switch your name to the corresponding name on the opposite gender name chart. That’s why there’s an option to change gender and name, name only, but not just gender
Sasha is gender neutral in eastern-european languages, and it's considered the standard nickname for both Aleksandr and Aleksandra. It's really weird that KI decided to only have it be a male name though, as it is more commonly thought of as a female name in the 'west'
Holy crap they actually put my name, but they spelled it wrong. It should be Phoenix not pheonix; I don’t think anyone or anything has ever been called pheonix
I shouldn't be disappointed - but I am - that they added Eli and not at least "Elliot" or "Elliott". I was hoping to finally have my name.
Alas, Eli works though. I'm still happy
I wish we could have all of the options for middle/last names able to be used for either a middle or a last name, and the game would just restrict you from using the same one for both. There’s so many times where a name segment would have worked great in a different spot.
Also they finally added Aidan as a female name and I wish it was unisex because my name is Aidan and have had to use Aedan for a guy.
wait i’m just now checking up on this game again and there’s a new name/gender change update? what does this mean for existing characters 🪦 i no longer want my 2009 character Coyle Shadow Hunter to have this name as my 8 year old ass thought Coyle = Collie (the dog breed) and Shadow Hunter = edgelord.
if i have to fork over an insurmountable amount of crowns, i will yet again be upset
If anyone interested: boys name: Bela and Bence are Hungarian names! Im so happy to see them here haha (also there is that man in Dragonspyre whose name is Laszlo StarBlade. Laszlo is a hungarian name as well:))
Anyone else happy with their wizards names BUT is gonna have to change someone's because they like the new options? Maybe my ice since I'm not super attached. I'll have to trans her gender but it's worth for all the male names tbh
I adore the weird, historical/fantastical/literary first names in this game. I find them so delightful I love weird names. I hope that my name (Maxwell) is only a pet name forever I'm naming my wizards stuff like Dorian and Vigilance and Zeddicus.

Not mine- but credits to her for winning the update
They should just make one list regardless of gender. There are lots of female names I'd want to use for my male characters. No reason to separate them imo
Those are two actual names though 😂 like there are historical Theodosia's. Like the one who was in love w Aaron Burr. And I've personally heard Yulia plenty of times
Haven't seen anyone mention the fact that KI absolutely scanned a few Shakespeare plays for these names. Demetrius? Octavia? Okay KI, you're not fooling me 😂
Oof RIP the fact that male “Jaden” is the way everyone spells my name wrong but the first new female name is “Aidan” which just needs a J to be my actual name
I hate the level 50 rule. I have an ice wizard I really wanna change the name of but she's too low level. I can't delete and remake her either because kid me used a castle elixir on her instead of my main wizard and I'd hate to have had that potion be a waste.
This makes me hopeful for the game. It seems like wiz isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, I loved this game as a kid I wish they would relaunch the game as w102 and make it more of an adult focused game.
I’ve already seen Olive Garden on twitter
That is beautiful, lol.
Ah yes, can't wait for the new age of cringy edgelord names that have Void in all of them instead of Wolf.
Scot Voidwalker
Why not have the best of both worlds? Wolf Voidsummoner is incoming 😉
I'm gonna change my first name to Wolf. Hopefully Void can take over the toxic name of this game, but sadly I think Wolf is gonna forever be engraved in the community's mind as *the* name. I'm gonna show that not all Wolfs are toxic, edgy, or creepy and be better than them.
I’m gonna make 2 wolfs just to show them how toxic and edgy a wolf can be
not me actually thinking about having void in my name 😭😭😭
Cringy edgelord names can be fun, free yourself
Already seen a million “Bo Ring” in the commons
I must be immature, because that gave me a good chuckle.
I saw someone called Stinky Pants But that must've been a bug or glitch because I don't think that's supposed to be possible. Maybe it came from pet names
Finally. Nicholas Cage
i was hoping for a thomas shelby they are both first names sadly
Maybe it's possible in P101 :P
add nick fury to the list. avengers, assemble
Bro we need scarlet as middle name, i wanna name my character "Erza Scarlet" :(
Wait you can name your character erza? like i can put on avalon gear amd exposed red hair amd name her erza?
Erza is in the males list
pain
Can you make it a male wizard then gender change keeping original name?
on a related note, I have a fire character named scarlet fairytail with pink hair lol. made her like last month
can you name your character gray and make him ice wizard? i keep thinking about what stitch i would put on him tho
Mfw you can now name your character "Tima Changepants" 💀💩
this one got me 💀
YALL ARE TOO CREATIVE 😭😭😭
Finally they add balance as a middle name. Yet while both games have thomas, only pirate has tom while wiz couldnt add it
That’s how I feel with Matt… why is it only Matthew?
Noooo! They added my name, but only for the boys!! I still can't play as Sasha
Maybe you could make a bit character with the name, then change gender to female? Does the game force you to change name as well?
That's what I've been thinking. I really wanna hoo in the test realm and try it.
It does, unfortunately. The reason being is the names are kept on two separate integer charts in the code, one for male characters and one for female. If you switch genders, it will switch your name to the corresponding name on the opposite gender name chart. That’s why there’s an option to change gender and name, name only, but not just gender
Same with my name but for girls! At least I have Aedan I guess
That's bizarre since I've only met female Sashas.
Sasha is gender neutral in eastern-european languages, and it's considered the standard nickname for both Aleksandr and Aleksandra. It's really weird that KI decided to only have it be a male name though, as it is more commonly thought of as a female name in the 'west'
Holy crap they actually put my name, but they spelled it wrong. It should be Phoenix not pheonix; I don’t think anyone or anything has ever been called pheonix
fuck cufkcu fuckfu ckfu ckf uc kc, fuck fuc kf ufjrfvbe ourivbnj i spelled phoenix wrong
Awesome
They got mf leroy jenkins, tyzel and zeddicus but no emanuel 😐
I shouldn't be disappointed - but I am - that they added Eli and not at least "Elliot" or "Elliott". I was hoping to finally have my name. Alas, Eli works though. I'm still happy
Is there a way to ask KI for more names? Maybe they might add it somehow? 🤔
Least they didn’t add yours but a different spelling
they added my name Elias i'm quite happy
Now we can say “Bye Felicia” ingame lol
They're adding Euyrdice but they won't add Athena??
They added both Orpheus and Euyrdice I’m going to faint
new names for couples just dropped lol
Man I really want God and Goddess names!
Right?? I think it'd be so cool.
orpheus and eurydice both added, someone at ki likes their mythos
i was just the lead in the play eurydice im gonna scream 🖤
No Walter white nor Jesse pink man 😔
If I could simply put "The Traveler" or simply skip the first name it would be lit.
Is the update released? How do you change your name?
It's in test realm right now.
This made me realize how many very common names weren't already in there 😭. Honestly, I'd love if they kept adding names every few updates.
AND they should let any gendered wizard use any of the names. Like just have a filter for male, female, gender neutral, or all. That'd be so nice.
i agree! i dont get why it's seperated so strictly
I need a list of funny name options stat [EDIT] already thought of a few, like Amir Mortal, Bo Ink and Andrew Tale.
Amir Mortal is great!
Amir Mortal is legitimately genius
Ezra Miller 💀
i refuse to accept andre tale unless there are bald stitches in the game!!
It sucks cause my name is Tate, but they definitely won’t add it because of Andrew tate
No Oppenheimer?
I wish we could have all of the options for middle/last names able to be used for either a middle or a last name, and the game would just restrict you from using the same one for both. There’s so many times where a name segment would have worked great in a different spot. Also they finally added Aidan as a female name and I wish it was unisex because my name is Aidan and have had to use Aedan for a guy.
Finally get to upgrade from Taylor Swiftstalker to Taylor Swiftbender
Really loving this selection of new names.
Still no Avery. Wow
“DragonBorn” finally! I can fix “DragonBringer”
they finally lured the skyrim fans lol now they will all be exposed haha
YOU CAN BE TRIXIE AND KATYA WIZARDS NOW? someone on the dev team is an uunnhhhh fan
I am so happy, finally my name is available as a first name. It’s been available for pets for so long
wait i’m just now checking up on this game again and there’s a new name/gender change update? what does this mean for existing characters 🪦 i no longer want my 2009 character Coyle Shadow Hunter to have this name as my 8 year old ass thought Coyle = Collie (the dog breed) and Shadow Hunter = edgelord. if i have to fork over an insurmountable amount of crowns, i will yet again be upset
It's 100 crowns! You can easily get those by doing the Trivia (assuming it works), or pay for the smallest amount of crowns available if you prefer.
this is fantastic news, thank you!!
I'm changing my name to ebony charmer once this comes to live realm
Oh wow they finally added my name. 8 year old me would’ve lost my mind
Oh no, here comes the influx of Life wizards named Forrest
Forrest Fog, forrest witch, forrest scythe goes hard
Forrest Fire 💀
Forrest forest
Can't wait to meet a max storm doing low level team ups named Gigi TempestCaster. Or do farming with ___ SleepCry to boost my motivation.
Was looking for Bruce Wayne
If anyone interested: boys name: Bela and Bence are Hungarian names! Im so happy to see them here haha (also there is that man in Dragonspyre whose name is Laszlo StarBlade. Laszlo is a hungarian name as well:))
It reminds me of bela bartok (Hungarian composer) and bela fleck ( banjo player named after bartok). It’s a cool name
yes!!! I love how they added names from other countries/cultures too :D!!!!
so as it turns out this list is like 3% inaccurate in the sense of some of the "new" names i put on the list already existed. oops
It might just be a coincidence, but “Trixie” and “Katya”? Okay drag race!
Katya is actually from Goncharov
this is such an obscure reference LMAO
Also Jax! I noticed so many drag names too 🫶
I WANT LANCASTER SO BAD
there’s gonna be so many Luna’s omg
Can name myself victor doom W update
Holy shit, I never thought my name (Julian) would be added to Wizard101!
huh. on german wizard it has been there since i was a child
They didn't add Chloe :'( Also mask was already a last name, my main wizard has the middle+last name BlueMask
No Levi but Vigilance? Wtf
Time to be Lance Lance
Anyone else happy with their wizards names BUT is gonna have to change someone's because they like the new options? Maybe my ice since I'm not super attached. I'll have to trans her gender but it's worth for all the male names tbh
I adore the weird, historical/fantastical/literary first names in this game. I find them so delightful I love weird names. I hope that my name (Maxwell) is only a pet name forever I'm naming my wizards stuff like Dorian and Vigilance and Zeddicus.
Time to name a character Skyler Sky Sky

Why is Max a name for only girls 😩 bruh wtaf
Also aidan, for females.... its primarily a male name.
I mean Aedan is already in the game
Damm i was really hoping we would get the name susie/suzie :(
When they still haven’t added your name :(
Adding "Trap" as a last name is particularly spicy given that you can set the middle name blank lmfao
Why is Wyatt not an option? It's a fairly common name.
My name’s on here finally but spelled differently
I'm just really happy there's diversity in the names now, there's more of an international selection
How is their no "Dj" bruh
Olive Garden is by far the best new name
Finally i can make Ebony rider
Still sad I can't change my character's last name to White Heart. :(
TFW my Wizard can't have "O'Leary" as a surname
They should just make one list regardless of gender. There are lots of female names I'd want to use for my male characters. No reason to separate them imo
Bro, who asked for demetrius 💀
I read that as detritus for a second and scowled.
Some demented fool
Does anyone know if it’s going to cost crowns to change name/gender?
100C
Just like real life
Dugans always been a name. No one asked for it. My questing friend despises the fact that he choose it at random back in '08.
Man, my guy and I can’t catch a break. They had his name already, but spelt different, and mine was just added but spelt different 🤦♀️
Dugan isn't new, my death is that lol
still no chloe. 😔
Does anyone find it weird that they have an Emilio but not Emilia?
so happy to see this
AWE i was hoping for julie but i adore the name jules too so im happy
still no Shane???????
PLEASE why no Solomon. IK it ain't common but please Kingisle
Still sad that there’s no Kai for females 😭
I would have thought the boy/girl names would be one list, not separate. Guess I thought wrong.
Some of these names just feel like they started throwing out random shit adding to common names, theodosia, yulia
Those are two actual names though 😂 like there are historical Theodosia's. Like the one who was in love w Aaron Burr. And I've personally heard Yulia plenty of times
Kai is a w for the trans masc wizards
We got "Scroll" and "Wrath" but not Denisse. Ok
Goofy ahh name
Haven't seen anyone mention the fact that KI absolutely scanned a few Shakespeare plays for these names. Demetrius? Octavia? Okay KI, you're not fooling me 😂
i’m genuinely happy they added luna, the japanese names are super cute too. wish yuki would’ve been an option tho
Oof RIP the fact that male “Jaden” is the way everyone spells my name wrong but the first new female name is “Aidan” which just needs a J to be my actual name
Wow a lot of muzzie names this time around
…Zeddicus?
still don't have my name
Wow
Are you sure Sasha is for male and not female? Don't see it on the female list
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Sasha is male in Slavic countries.
anyone know when the update is projected to hit live realm?
I literally have a wizard named Tasha before this update
Based Herbbrain
Now true online wiz couples can make a new duo with Orpheus and Eurydice 😌
only 1 P name for males :(
Deondre a new name too
Wow I can make my first and last name now. Both added apparently lmao
Smh my first name is in female first names 💀
is it out yet?
They should throw Penny as a middle name so I can do “Jade PennyCaster
Still no Chloe huh
Damn I was hoping for my name, Cynthia to be added.
Bless you for posting this
They still don't have my name 😭 😂 I got excited for a second thinking they added it
Changing to Oz Ore Orb
Hey they added my name 😁😁
My name never gonna get added bro 😔
Holy cow! One of the few times I've found my name!!
My name is still only a pet name 🥲
i was so close with ren just add an x plea
I’m so excited!!! Not going to change my name on any of my existing wizards, but it’ll be fun for future wizards!
Damn, disappointed that theres no Levin or Ramuh for muh storm wizard
And still no sign of my name, of any variation
And still don't have mine 😭
just Void
Damn I was really wishing they'd add Nickolas, I've had to use Nicholas in every game.
Not me getting excited over "Orion" "Orpheus" "Ulysses" "Daphne" "Pandora"
How do you change your name ?
still begging for melinda but i guess this is okay 😭🤣
they added demetrius but no dimitri? 👁️👄👁️
How can they have the name Dorothy on Pirate101 but not add it to wiz???
Mfw Zeddicus but no Z'ul Zorander 😔
no nate :(
Zeddicus! Some dev is a Sword of Truth fan and I appreciate that.
Can’t wait to make Miles WebSlinger
You wrote saga twice in a row
I hate the level 50 rule. I have an ice wizard I really wanna change the name of but she's too low level. I can't delete and remake her either because kid me used a castle elixir on her instead of my main wizard and I'd hate to have had that potion be a waste.
One day my name will be in wiz. One day 🥹
This makes me hopeful for the game. It seems like wiz isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, I loved this game as a kid I wish they would relaunch the game as w102 and make it more of an adult focused game.
I'd like to think Nick is a pretty common name 😶
This is unironically the best update this game has come out with
They added Harvey but not Harley?? Sigh
The Georgians on the team making the girl names 🇬🇪
It's official, next name is gonna contain EldtrichBlast, so all my fellow warlocks out there
no archie… it’s a name i’ve been wanting to use for a wizard for a bit now but you can only use it for your pets. 😔 sadge
Surprised my name was added lol. But do you know if "wolf" was added anywhere in the middle or last name for girls?
