QuickNames
by lime11_11
QuickNames shortens the server name shown in the multiplayer list by dropping generic prefixes and hub domain suffixes.
What it does
When a player adds a server, QuickNames pulls the most meaningful part of the address for the list entry, skipping generic prefixes such as play and mc, and trimming hub domain suffixes like .net and .com. A server name the player types in by hand is left untouched, and a default name is kept as it is.
The mod runs only on the client, so a server does not need it and players join without installing anything on the server side. Builds for Fabric cover 1.21.4 – 1.21.11 under the Apache License 2.0, which is not open source.
Key features
Clean server names
The address is shortened to its most meaningful part, so long hostnames fit the server list.
Manual names preserved
A custom name typed by the player is left completely untouched.
Default names kept
A server entry left on its default name is kept as it is, with no rewriting applied.
