Personalisation: Nicknames & Initials

Do I Have to Have a Nickname?


Whether a nickname is required depends on the design chosen by your school or organiser.

Some stores may include:

  • A back print featuring all student names
  • Optional nicknames or initials
  • No personalisation options at all

If personalisation is available, the option will appear when selecting your garment.

If you do not see a personalisation field when ordering, it means your school has chosen a design without nickname options.


🔤 Nickname Character Limit

Nicknames can be up to 18 characters long.

The final appearance may vary slightly depending on:

  • The font used
  • The characters entered
  • The overall design layout

Longer names may appear slightly smaller so they fit within the design area.


🔡 Initials Character Limit

Initials are limited to 3 characters.

As with nicknames, the visual appearance may vary slightly depending on the font and design.


✏️ Spellings & Accuracy

All names used in the design are provided either:

  • By the individual placing the order, or
  • By the organiser (for group submissions)


Please check spelling carefully before completing your order.

Once garments have been produced, personalised items cannot be altered or resold, so changes may not be possible after production begins.
