Custom Names?

I know there is an analysis board on chess.com and there is a way to set a name for the white pieces and black pieces like in a normal chess.com game. Instead of just them being labeled white and black on the analysis board, how do I change their names to be whatever I want the name of the player to be without using the name search function?

You just type anything you want into the Details section.

There's an edit box now to update those details.

Love this idea! Giving custom names in game analysis makes it way more fun and personal.

Here are a few playful ones I like using:

Pawn Star vs. Knightmare
Queen Bee vs. King of Blunders
The Bishop's Gambit vs. Castle Crusher
Mittens Jr. vs. BlunderBot
It’s a great way to add character to your reviews—especially when sharing games with friends or students. Helps lighten the mood even when you lose horribly!

Curious what other fun names people use. Let’s hear your favorites!
