FabricQuiltServer-side onlyGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.17.1 – 26.3

What it does

Players and server admins can set a nickname that supports formatting codes. The server owner can disable the nickname length limit for chosen players, and grant a separate permission so admins can remove inappropriate nicknames. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. It is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and it supports Fabric and Quilt across 33 release versions, 1.17.1 – 26.3.

Key features

  1. Formatted nicknames

    Nicknames accept full formatting, so names can carry colors and styles chosen by the player.

  2. Length limit control

    A permission lets chosen players bypass the nickname length limit, while tags remain ignored by the limit.

  3. Moderation permission

    A separate permission lets admins change or remove other players' nicknames that break server rules.

What the author says

You can also give stylednicknames.ignore_limit to disable nickname length limit for them (which already ignores tags). You should also give stylednicknames.change_others permission to your admins, so they can remove bad nicknames
