Football games are stricter than most, because club and squad names are shown to other players and moderated accordingly.
The filter here is aimed at offensive names rather than at decoration, but it catches unusual characters as a side effect.
Which fields accept styling
Club and squad names accept more than the account ID, which is tied to your platform account and stays plain.
On console the ID is your PlayStation or Xbox name, so the styling rules of those platforms apply rather than the game rules.
Custom tournament and squad names inside the game are usually the most permissive fields of all.
Keeping it broadcast friendly
- Club names appear in commentary graphics and scoreboards, so legibility matters more here than decoration.
- Small caps gives a broadcast feel that suits the context better than gothic.
- Simple brackets or a single symbol read as professional, while heavy frames look out of place on a scoreboard.
- Keep the name typeable if you play in online leagues where organisers have to record results.
Tip: I styled a club name in gothic for an online league and the organiser recording results kept spelling it differently in the table, so our fixtures went in under two different names. A plain name in small caps solved the paperwork problem instantly.

This page styles text you already have. If you are still working out the name itself, a nickname generator covers that side, and it is easier to pick the words first and style them once at the end.
