NameHistorian

Records and displays name changes over time for players who join your server.

On September 13th, 2022, Mojang disabled the ability to look up username history. While you can tell which player is which by looking up their UUID, it isn't easy to keep track of them. That's where NameHistorian comes in.

When a player joins or leaves the server, NameHistorian records their username in a local database, so staff will always know who their players are.

Commands

/history <player> - Looks up and displays the name history of a player. Supports both usernames and UUIDs. If the player is offline, also requests their current profile from the Mojang servers and saves it. Permission: namehistorian.history (default: op)

/namehistorian reload - Reloads the plugin. Permission: namehistorian.reload (default: op)
