PrideNameTags
PrideNameTags shows a chosen pride flag behind the nametag of each player who uses the mod, so other players see it above the head.
What it does
Each player can pick one pride flag, and the flag then appears behind their nametag for everyone else who runs the mod. A player can also hide their own flag from others while still seeing every flag they can see. The mod is aimed at multiplayer servers, where nametags are visible to all, and it works in single-player as well.
Rendering happens on the client only, so a server does not have to install anything and players join without it being required on the server side. The mod can run alongside other nametag mods, though some of those overwrite the same rendering code and may conflict. More flags are planned, and the author says they will be added over time.
PrideNameTags is published for Fabric only, with a single build for 26.2. The latest file is 1.0.1, released on 2026-08-21, and the mod is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Flag behind nametags
A chosen pride flag is drawn behind the player's nametag, visible to other players who have the mod installed.
Flag selection
Players choose from several pride flags through a simple selection, and the choice shows on their own nametag.
Hidden own flag
A player can make their flag invisible to others while the remaining flags stay visible, with their own flag still shown to themselves.
Lightweight rendering
The flags are drawn on the client, which keeps the work small and removes any need for a server-side component.
