Name Tailor

by BackupCup

Name Tailor lets players rename items on the go, without visiting an anvil or spending experience levels.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1 – 1.20.6

What it does

Renaming normally happens at an anvil, where the cost is paid in experience levels. Name Tailor removes that step, so a player can give a held or stored item a new name wherever they are. The renaming screen is a simple box with a clean layout, which keeps the process short for players who rename often.

Players who want custom gear names on a survival world, an adventure map or a multiplayer server can use the mod without a workstation. It is aimed at personalizing equipment rather than changing how items work. Fabric API is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for six game versions 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Rename items without an anvil

    Items can be renamed anywhere in the game, with no anvil and no experience cost.

  2. Name tag renaming

    Name tags can be used to rename items quickly, giving a second route for customization.

  3. Renaming at any time

    The rename action does not depend on a workstation, so a player can change a name during play.

  4. Simple renaming screen

    The interface is a plain box with text entry, with no extra menus between the player and the rename.
