[Minecraft] Change the capitilization in your MC name to ANYTHING

[tom378]

Hello! There's been an interesting feature that's been discovered on how to change the capitalization of your IGN that I'd like to share it with everyone! If I find out this isn't allowed by Mojang, I'll be taking down this post. Without further ado - here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it! Step 1 Head over to your minecraft folder (Windows: Windows Key + R, %appdata%, then click .minecraft) (macOS: Open finder, click "Go", then click "Go to folder" and enter the following - ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft) Step 2 Open the launcher_profiles.json file with a text editor. Step 3 Find your name in the file: "displayName": "Callahan" Step 4 Change that to whatever name you'd like! Save the file and restart your Minecraft client for the changes to take effect. Keep in mind that it only works with changing capitalization so changing your name to something else would result in not being able to pass authentication servers. Enjoy!
Don't think I saw this posted on here so I would just like to share.
This is not a method founded by myself but from a youtube.
