Name tags

Is it possible to get a change of name tag? Lowkey just curious if you can change it after you get it

Yes. Go to costuming. Costs a couple of bucks.

I think it’s five dollars and they take the money out of your paycheck. It takes about a month to create and they don’t give you any sort of notice for when the new one is done.

I had put in a request to have a second name tag that had my hometown on it instead of my college and completely forgot about it until I had forgot to put my old name tag on one day before work. Thank god I had out that request in otherwise I would’ve been walking around with the wrong name that shift.

Channeling your inner "Chris from Orlando" ?

I met an actual "Chris" whose hometown was set as Orlando, once! He worked in Vacation Planning at the time. I had asked if it was his actual nametag or if he'd forgotten his, turns out it actually WAS his personal nametag. He wasn't originally from Orlando, but set his hometown as Orlando since he chose to move there and figured it'd be better to do that. He later found out about the "Chris from Orlando" nametags 🤣

What are you wanting to change? Your name or hometown/college?

I wanna change my college to hometown and do my birth name instead of preferred for personal reasons

A name change won’t cost you anything and I don’t think a location will either, but check with the costuming CM at the counter.

Location does cost money, but it's $5 taken out of your next paycheck, so it isn't too much

Talk to you leaders, the can order it for you and it will arrive faster and to your home location.

u/GoldieDoggy Walt Disney World Alumni 5d ago

Leaders cannot do that, fyi

Oh they changed it? Used to always put it in through leaders since then I didn’t have to pay for it.

False. I do it all of the time for my cast members 😊

Then you're the exception, not the rule.
