Name Tags Not Consumable│命名牌不是消耗品
by Special_TT
Name Tags Not Consumable makes a name tag survive its use, so renaming a mob no longer costs the tag.
What it does
A name tag is normally used up when it renames a mob. This mod changes that behavior through a data pack, so the tag stays in the inventory after it is applied. The item name and its default behavior return once the pack is removed. Name Tag stackable is needed for the change to apply, and Item Components must be installed beforehand. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21.5 – 1.21.7. The server must run the mod, while players may leave it out.
Key features
Reusable name tags
Applying a name tag to a mob no longer removes the tag from the player's inventory.
Data pack based change
The behavior is set by a data pack, so no new items or recipes are added to the game.
Default behavior restored
Removing the pack brings back the original item name and the consumed-after-use behavior.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
