Preliminary information
Before explaining to you how to put smiley face on Fortnite name, I have to give you some preliminary information about it. In fact, you must know that, basically, the famous title of Epic Games does not allow you to insert smileys, symbols or, in general, special characters in the name of your game account, as these are not supported.
However, if you want, you can still succeed in this intent by making use of an alternative solution, which consists in the use of some Japanese characters that, aesthetically, resemble smilies.
All clear? Very well. Before explaining how to proceed, however, I also remind you that it is possible to change the name on Fortnite only every two weeks. Even with this clarification, I would say that we can take action!
