Discord Fonts Generator — Copy and Paste.

Display Names

Display names fully support Unicode. This is the most popular use case for Discord fonts — copy a styled version of your name and paste it in User Settings > My Account > Profiles. You can change it as often as you like.

Chat Messages

Paste any Unicode-styled text into channels, DMs, or group chats. The styled text appears exactly as copied for all users on desktop and mobile.

Server & Channel Names

Server owners can use styled text and symbols in server names, channel names, category names, and role names. Channel names have a 100-character limit. This is a popular way to make servers look more professional or themed.

Bios & About Me

Your Discord bio supports Unicode text with a 190-character limit. For styles designed specifically for bios, visit the Bio Font page. You can also read Stop the Scroll with Font Variation for tips on mixing font weights to create visual hierarchy in your Discord About Me section.

Usernames — Not Supported

Discord usernames (the @handle) only accept lowercase a–z, numbers 0–9, underscores, and periods. Use your display name instead — it supports all font styles and is what other users see in servers and DMs.

Discord doesn't have a built-in font setting. To use custom fonts, type your text in the generator at the top of this page, pick a style (bold, cursive, gothic, etc.), click to copy, then paste it into Discord — your display name, any chat message, server name, channel, or bio.

Change Your Display Name Font

Generate a styled version of your name above, then go to User Settings > My Account > Profiles and paste it into the display name field. For per-server names, right-click your avatar in a server and select Edit Per-server Profile.

Make Small Text on Discord

Discord has no font size setting, but you can use Unicode subscript and small caps characters. Use the generator above and look for the "Small Text" or small caps styles.

Make Big Text on Discord

In chat messages, use Discord's header markdown: type # followed by a space for the largest heading, ## for medium, or ### for small. Headers work at the start of a new line. Outside of chat (display names, bios), there's no way to increase font size.

What Font Does Discord Use?

Discord uses gg sans, a proprietary typeface created by Discord. Before 2023, Discord used a customized version of Whitney by Hoefler&Co. The gg sans font is not available for download or use outside of Discord.

Discord uses Markdown syntax for basic text formatting in chat. These are built-in commands — separate from the Unicode font styles above.

Discord now offers Display Name Styles as a Nitro feature — built-in fonts, colors, and effects for your display name. Here's how it compares to using Unicode fonts from a generator.
