You can change it with a Japanese account but it will only show up changed on you're screen. For friends, it will be the name that you first made. It kind of sucks, since I hate my PSN name...


 

 

Puppy yeah that's no fun :smileytongue:

 

Hopefully we will someday be able to change them.

No but i am sorry to say currently Sony does not support name changes for the play station network maybe it then future it will. For now you will have to make a new account but why bother? Its just a name.

Did I Help? If So, Say So! No one is perfect, we all make mistakes.

Re: Can you change your PSN name without creating a new PSN account?

Unfortunately you can not.  To create new psn name you need a new account.  I don't like that cause I've been wanting to change my psn name but I don't wanna lose all my trophy info. GGGRRRRRR.......

Re: Can you change your PSN name without creating a new PSN account?

You honestly like skill321?  I mean if it has some sort of unknown value to you then fine.  I want to change my username but I don't want my friend's list to be full of random names I don't know because they change them all the time.

 

EDIT: Also Welcome to the forum!  Hope you enjoy your stay.

Re: Can you change your PSN name without creating a new PSN account?

Just make a new account.  It much easer that way.  You can delete your old one of your ps3, butt it still in the system.  Then the only thing is you would need a new e-mail account for you new psn account.  I did that with my account awhile ago.  Now my son uses my old account.  We each got one now.  This way there is no mix up's with our trophies and stuff.
