How To Edit A Friend’s Name On Snapchat

Are you having trouble remembering people with all their different display names on Snapchat? Do you want to add nicknames for your friends on the app? If so, you can edit their names on your account and choose one that can make you remember them easier. Check our guide below, and we’ll teach you how to do it on your device.

In Snapchat, people can use any display name that they want. They can choose to add an alias or a cool name instead of a regular one.

If you have a lot of friends on the app, different display names can make it difficult for you to distinguish exactly which person sent you a message or a snap. If you prefer to add common names to help you remember people, you have the option to update a contact or friend’s name on the app.

When you change someone’s name on Snapchat, they won’t know about your decision. It will only update the contact’s name on your end, and it won’t affect how other people view you on the app.
