Choccy's Craftable Nametags
by ChoccyMilch
Choccy's Craftable Nametags makes name tags craftable in vanilla-style recipes, which the base game does not allow.
What it does
Name tags can be crafted from three string, one slimeball and one iron ingot, so players who want to name a mob no longer need to find one in a chest. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, while the server alone runs the added recipe. Files target NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, with 1.0.0 as the latest build from 2025-09-05, and the code is MIT-licensed open source.

The recipe keeps the feel of the base game and changes no other item or mob behavior.
Server-side operation
Only the server loads the recipe, so players need nothing extra to name mobs.
