Names

One of the most important mechanics in Animal Jam is the name of the animals. When the player first buys an animal, the first thing the player does is choose the animal's name. This same rule also applies to when the player first makes an Animal Jam account. The player chooses a first name, then a space, followed by two names put together. At the bottom of the animal, there is a name tag. Members can add a special badge to their animal and change the color of their name tag.

Trivia

 * As of Feburuary 18th 2016, Nametags for Members are brighter and have a gradient on them.
 * An option was introduced in 2015 that allows Jammers to choose whether they want nametags to display usernames (default) or the previous animal names.
 * The nametags update instantly when this option is changed by non-members, but members will not see a change until they re-enter the room or reload the world.
 * Names cannot be changed after the animal purchase has been completed.
 * When searching for a Jammer, their username must be entered instead of their animal's name. This is because many Jammers will have the same name.
 * There are no first names available that start with the letters N, U, X, Y, or Z.
 * There are no "second" names available that start with the letters E, N, O, U, X, or Y.
 * There are no third names available that start with the letters Q, U, X, Y, or Z.
 * Every third name is not capitalized.
 * It is possible to have the name "Major Majormajor" since you are able to select "Major" for your first, second and third name. There is also a similar name, having your second and third name as "Spirit". You can also have your second and third name as "Brave", and having your first and second name as "Happy".
 * Non-members have a paw badge that is only seen on their name by them and by their buddies.
 * There is a switch on the side of the name creator that creates a random name.
 * In the early beta days, Rosey was available instead of Rosy. However, this was changed soon after.
 * Around 2012 you could select the second name "Darling" but this was later removed, aroung 2014-15.
