@FrostblossomTSM and @KodamaTreeSpirit I have tried changing my IGN on two different accounts to both your IGNs on two different accounts. I can't find what the reason for this issue you are experiencing could be. I have also connected to Facebook and still IGNs can be changed and are visible.
My suggestion is to share here all the information that the team will need to investigate the issue. Please share following info:
1. Device platform (iOS or Android)
2. OS version
3. Device brand and model
4. Player ID
5. Connection type
6. Region/country
7. Any additional information that might help investigate the issue.

On April 23rd I loaded my game and my player name had been deleted/cleared out. Upon going to 'Change player name' the field is highlighted red with the error "You need a name" displayed immediately. No matter what name input variation I enter in the field, when I click the 'Okay' button the error "Name does not meet the required formatting" appears (see screenshots attached). This empty name bug causes my name to appear blank on friend's friend lists, when friends visit my house (screenshots at beginning of thread) and blank in party chats, all regardless of their device type. The original name entered was 💮Frostblossom 💮 This occurred with one other friend in my list, so it does NOT appear to be an isolated issue.

Thanks everyone for all the info shared here!
While I'm not sure yet what is happening, from what you are sharing it looks like it's more of an issue with some accounts' username than the friends lists itself. I'll share this info with the team so they can investigate.
If anyone else is having issues with their username, please let us know.
Thanks for the detailed comments so far! 🙂Me too, and i can't change my name. 3 players in my friendlist also have this problem. This issue happened to players who opened the game without upgrading after the multiple floors update was released. Please fix it, thanks.
