Yo you dont need to pay money! I just changed my recently! All you need is a copy of Dead or Alive 3. Play survival mode and lose. It will then ask you for a nickname. Put the name you want it then save it. Boot up Halo and you will see that your nickname is now your Xbox's name. Trust me it works

My Xbox is awesome...its name is Crazy which is cool. Add to that the fact that it can read pretty much any CD-R or CD-RW media (with no modchip or tampering) and you have one awesome Xbox.

I think it's to do with the first game you play on it. Walla-walla, Donut, Caboose and Crazy are all random names from Halo's multiplayer. (Hence RvB named the recruits after random names, as if they'd just joined the game without naming themselves!) I first played DOA3 on it, and named a saved score profile Fanda, after my ex-girlfriend who looks a bit like Leifang, and that's been my Xbox name since. Don't know if doing the DOA thing again will change it though...

YOU GUYS ARE DUMB! rent dead or alive 3 and beat it. THEN it will let you change it.

I thought everyone knew that! But its dumb to change its name to. I like sneak cause im a splinter cell freak so i want to keep it the same.

Another way to change the name of your x-box is to put in return to castle wolfenstein and under options for playing online it ask for a nickname and you cangive it a name there. and it doesnt require you to beat a game to do it.

The name of my Xbox was originally Goat, but I changed it to Jorge. There are actually two ways to change your Xbox's name. One, as mentioned before is with Dead or Alive 3, you have to get a high score on survival mode. However, you have a limited number of letters, 7 I believe, and they all have to be capitals and there are no symbols. However, if you use Return to Castle Wolfenstein along with Xbox Live, you can have 11 characters and symbols. I don't know much about the Castle Wolfenstein one (I used DOA 3), but you have to sign on to Live and go to options, then settings, then you change something there. That's about all I know.

the first game I played was DOA3, and before i even started playing the single player it automaticaly named my xbox Zack (one of the fighters in the game) I never changed it because I kinda like that name. It sounds pretty cool. I wish my name was Zack.
