That’s like default email signatures from mobile devices like Sent from iPhone or Sent from my Windows Phone — it’s boring and generic.

Change Xbox One Name

To change the name to whatever you want, fire up your Xbox One, sign in, and head to Settings > System and then select Name under the System list.

That brings up the following screen where you can enter in a new name for your console. This is a place where using our tip on connecting a keyboard to Xbox One or using the SmartGlass app comes in handy. Nothing is more annoying than wasting time, hunting and pecking, with an on-screen keyboard.

After you’re done, a restart will be required to complete the renaming…and that’s it!

Now when you open Network on a Windows PC, you’ll see your Xbox listed with the name you gave it. This is simple to do, and is a good feature to have if you have more than one Xbox One console in your home or office.

Any ideas? I know its a minor issue, but its aesthetic issues like this that bug me a lot personally. I too have the same issue. I can’t stand the all caps, especially when the original name was in varied upper and lower case letters. This definitely seems like a bug, but it’s annoying! Comment Name * Email *
