This problem has cropped up on my xbox one realm while I am trying to contain all hostile mobs.  Wither skeletons are the only mob I have found that I am unable to use a nametag on.

Still an issue in latest 1.8 betas

Comment by Zeb [ 14/Sep/18 ]

This issue is still occurring. The minecraft:nameable component is still missing from the wither_skeleton.json file in the vanilla behavior pack.

Yeah,I can't seem to name wither skeletons either.

As of 1.1 build 7, you can rename the spawn eggs, but you can't nametag a Wither Skeleton.
