In the account details screen, enter the desired name in the "BATTLETAG" field. You can change your name for free only once.
Changing your name is only free the first time
You can change your BattleTag for free only once. From the second time onwards, you will need to purchase the BattleTag change option for 1,130 yen, so choose your name carefully when making changes.
How to Hide Your Real Name
Disabling Real ID
If your real name is being displayed when sending or receiving friend requests, you can disable the "Real ID" feature. After logging into Battle.net, you can access the privacy settings to configure your Real ID.
