Where to find your Dragon City username in the app
Your Dragon City username appears in the top left corner of the main game screen, next to your player level and avatar. Open Dragon City Mobile, and look at the bar that shows your name, level, and gold count — your username is the text displayed there. If you have not set a custom username yet, the game may show a default name based on your account.
You can also find your username by tapping the profile icon (usually a circular avatar in the top left or top right, depending on your device). This opens your player profile, where your username is displayed prominently at the top. The profile screen also shows your level, the dragons you own, and other account details.
Key Takeaways
- Your Dragon City username is visible in the top left corner of the main game screen next to your level and avatar.
- Tapping your profile icon opens a full profile page where your username appears at the top.
- If you see a default name instead of a custom one, you can change it through the settings menu in most cases.
- Your username is different from your account ID — the username is what other players see, while the account ID is a number tied to your account backend.
Checking your profile settings
Open Dragon City Mobile and tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines or a gear icon, depending on your version). Look for a "Settings" or "Profile" option. Once you are in settings, you should see your account information, including your current username and the option to change it if you want.
Some versions of Dragon City also let you view your username by going to the "Account" or "Player Info" section within settings. The exact menu layout varies slightly between iOS and Android versions, but the username is always stored in your account information area.
What to do if you cannot see your username
If the username does not appear in the usual places, make sure you are logged into your account. Dragon City requires you to sign in with either a Socialpoint account, Facebook, or Google Play (Android) or Game Center (iOS). If you are not logged in, the game may show a guest account or default name instead.
Log out and log back in using your account credentials. After you sign in again, your username should display in the profile and on the main screen. If it still does not appear, try closing the app completely and reopening it — sometimes the display needs to refresh.
The difference between username and account ID
Dragon City uses two different identifiers for your account. Your username is the name other players see when you interact with them, send gifts, or join a team. Your account ID is a long number assigned by the game system and is used for account recovery and support purposes.
If you need to contact Dragon City support about your account, they will ask for your account ID, not your username. You can find your account ID in the settings or profile section — it is usually labeled as "Player ID" or "Account ID" and appears as a string of numbers. Write down both your username and account ID in a safe place if you ever need to recover your account.
Changing your username
Most versions of Dragon City let you change your username once for free, and additional changes may cost in-game currency or real money. To change your username, go to your profile or settings, look for an "Edit Profile" or "Change Name" button, and follow the prompts. The new username takes effect when ready and is visible to other players right away.
Choose a username you are comfortable with, because changing it repeatedly can be expensive. Some players use their real name, while others prefer a fantasy name that fits the game theme. The game has content filters, so usernames with offensive language or certain words are rejected during creation.
Recovering your username if you forgot it
If you have not played Dragon City in a long time and cannot remember your username, sign into your account using the same login method you originally used (Facebook, Google Play, Game Center, or Socialpoint). Once you are logged in, your username will display in the profile section.
If you cannot remember which account you used to play, try logging in with each account you have access to. Dragon City saves your progress to your account, so signing in with the correct account will show you your old progress and username. If you are still stuck, contact Dragon City support through the in-game help menu — they can confirm your account details if you provide information about your player level and the dragons you owned.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my username the same as my email address?
No. Your email is the login credential you use to access your account, while your username is the name displayed in the game. Other players see your username, not your email. You can change your username without changing your email, and vice versa.
Can I use the same username as another player?
No, Dragon City usernames are unique. If you try to create or change to a username that another player already has, the game will reject it and ask you to choose a different one. This is why some players add numbers or special characters to their preferred names.
What happens to my username if I stop playing?
Your username stays tied to your account even if you do not play for months or years. When you log back in, your username and all your progress are still there. Dragon City does not delete inactive accounts or reassign usernames to new players.
Can I see other players' usernames?
Yes. When you visit another player's island, send them a gift, or view team members, you see their username. You can also search for players by username in the friends or team sections, depending on your game version.
