Naming mobs (another word for creatures) in Minecraft can be done with a nametag. Nametags can be found in chests throughout the world. To name a creature, you will need a nametag, an anvil, and at least 5 experience levels.
Steps
- Find a name tag. These can be found randomly in Nether Fortress chests, jungle temples, desert temples, and dungeons. You can also trade them with villagers.
- Choose the creature you want to name, and the name you will give it. You can name any passive or neutral mob (horses, pigs, zombies etc.)
- Get 5 experience levels. You can get experience from smelting, breeding, mining certain ores, and killing mobs.
- Right-click on an anvil.
- Place your name tag in one of the repair spaces.
- Enter the name you want to give your creature in the text box.
- Drag the name tag to your inventory.
- Find your creature.
- Hold the name tag.
- Right click on the creature to name it. The name should appear floating above your new named mob.
Tips
- Nametags can be hard to find, but they can appear in any naturally occurring chests. Keep looking!
- It is possible to change your name tag if you haven't used it on a mob yet.
- Don't forget to change the text in the text box, unless you want to name your wolf Name Tag.
