Display Names vs. Usernames in Roblox - What’s the Difference?

A username is the unique name all players assign themselves when first signing up for Roblox. Usernames are what players use to log in to the platform. Once created, usernames cost 1,000 Robux to change.

Going forward, a display name is the name that will appear in chat, player lists, or above your in-game character’s head. Essentially, display names are your social name, the name that you prefer all players to recognize as your Roblox character. Consider display names as a personal expression for your online persona.
