Minecraft Server Name Rules
Mojang sets the rules for server names in the Minecraft Usage Guidelines. The guidelines have no list of banned server names, but their naming and branding rules apply to every server. The table below lists the main rules.
| Rule | Requirement |
|---|---|
| The word Minecraft | Allowed only in a secondary name or description, never as the main name |
| Allowed example | Kotoba Miners: A Minecraft server for Redstone builds |
| Official look | Nothing that makes players think the server is official or approved by Mojang or Microsoft |
| Disclaimer | NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT SERVICE. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT. |
| Domain names | A domain with Minecraft in it is allowed only if it does not look official |
| Logos | No Minecraft logo or other Minecraft brand assets in the server branding |
| Server currency | No currency that looks like or has a name like Minecoins |
How to Choose a Perfect Name for a Minecraft Server?
A perfect Minecraft server name is short, easy to spell, and tells players what the server offers. Players type the name into server lists and search bars, so 1 or 2 words work best. Big networks like Hypixel and CubeCraft use 1 brand word that is easy to remember. A mode word like SMP, Skyblock, or Factions tells new players the game mode before they join. The table below shows each server type with an example name.
| Server Type | What Players Do | Example Name | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Survival SMP | Build, farm, and trade in a shared Survival world | Maple SMP | Survival Multiplayer of maples |
| Factions and PvP | Join a faction, claim land, and raid rivals | Titan Factions | Factions of titans |
| Skyblock | Grow a tiny floating island into a base | Cookie Skylands | Skylands of cookies |
| Creative | Build freely on plots with unlimited blocks | Willow Builds | Builds of willows |
| Minigames | Play short games like Bed Wars and parkour | Pixel Arcade | An arcade of pixels |
| Roleplay | Play a character in a town or a kingdom | Dragon Kingdom | A kingdom of dragons |
4 Quick Tips for Naming a Minecraft Server
- Keep it to 2 words. Short names are quick to type into the server list and easy to share in chat.
- Put the game mode in the name. A word like SMP or Skyblock tells players what to expect before they join.
- Leave Minecraft out of the main name. The Minecraft Usage Guidelines allow the word only in a tagline or description.
- Check the domain first. A matching .net or .com address makes the server easy to find, so check that the domain is free before you pick a name.
