World of Tanks keeps the account nickname strict, which surprises players coming from games with a separate display name.
Clan names and tags are where the identity work happens, and those fields have more room.
Account name or clan name?
The account nickname is used for logins, friend lists, and reports, so it stays in a restricted character set.
Clan names and tags are shown in battle and on the clan page, and they carry the visual identity for a group.
Clan tags are short and shown next to every member in battle, so legibility there is worth more than decoration.
Clan identity that works in battle
- Plain capitals in a tag read fastest in a battle overlay, where players are scanning quickly.
- Save styled letters for the clan name and description on the portal, where they can be seen properly.
- Recruiting depends on players finding your clan by name, so keep the searchable version plain.
- Keep tags consistent, since a mixed roster looks like two clans in one battle.
Tip: Our clan tag used a decorative capital and new recruits kept typing the plain version when searching, so they could not find us at all. Switching the tag to plain letters and styling the clan page instead doubled the applications that month.

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.
