duplicates MCPE-11045 Cant join servers, 'name invalid' Resolved
Confirmation Status: Unconfirmed
Platform: Tablet - iOS - iPad Mini

 Description   

When you try to join most servers on an Xbox account with a space in it it says invalid name. This needs to be fixed by Maybe replacing the spaces with underscores on sign in. I think this will be a very important bug to fix before the better together update as many people with spaces in their gamertag will be experiencing this issue. And I know thins issue isn't probably going to be marked as a duplicate but I think this is an issue that needs to be more recognised.

Regarding the problem with spaces in gamertags - this is an issue with the software used by third party servers. You might like to contact the server owner directly.

One workaround might be to change your gamertag (to remove spaces):

You can easily change your Xbox gamertag. If your gamertag was created for you when you initially signed up for Xbox (meaning you did not choose it yourself), you can change it one time for free. Additional Xbox gamertag changes cost extra. If you created your own gamertag at signup and want to change it, you will be charged (fee varies by region and currency).
