We put the Patronymic and Nickname in Vkontakte

First, check which browser you are using! We will look at two examples "Mozilla FireFox" and "Google Chrome".

Let's start with Mozila

  • Go to your page on Vkontakte
  • Go to profile settings. The "Edit" button under the avatar.
  • Highlight your last name and right-click, then select "Explore Element"

The site code will open at the bottom of the screen, where the line that needs to be copied will be highlighted.

Attention: Copy "External HTML"

Now we need to insert this line. Click "Insert After"

In the new copied line, you need to replace the word pedit_last-name with pedit_middle_name.

Click on an empty space and you will see a new line appear in your profile after the line "Last name". In which you can write any word.

Save for the changes to take effect. Now between the name and surname, a nickname will appear. By the way, the changes are visible only in the desktop version.

For Google Chrome

  • Go to the settings of your profile in VK, select your last name and click "View code"

On the right side of the screen, a code column will appear. As in the case of "Mozila", the line we need will be highlighted, which is worth copying.

After that, again click on our selected line and paste. To do this, click "Edit as HTML" and in the window that appears, press the key combination Ctrl + V

Now, also change the word "last" to "middle".

A new line will appear in the profile, in which you should enter your nickname. After all the shenanigans, save!

Remember! In the mobile version, as well as in the mobile application, you will see only First and Last names! If you have any questions or can't make a middle name on Vkontakte, then write in the comments!

On the pages of some VK users, there is a middle name or nickname. You cannot simply add it to the first or last name, since these fields have a limit on the number of words entered. To make a middle name on your page, you need minimal knowledge of html. For the convenience of editing the code, you can use specialized programs (HTML-Reader is suitable). If it is not possible to download and install this software, then use a regular notepad.

To get started, go to the edit section on your page. To do this, click the appropriate button:

After that, you need to switch to the html code view mode. Right-click anywhere on the page. If you are using Yandex browser (), you will see the "Explore item" link:

Click on "View Code". A console will open at the bottom for editing it. Note that as you move the cursor over the fields, the corresponding lines of code are highlighted:

Algorithm of actions

Select the code that is above the line with the word "Last Name", right-click and select "Edit as HTML":

A separate tag will open, which contains information about the block with the last name:

Copy and paste this code into notepad or another program. Then do the following:

  1. In line < divclass \u003d ”pedit_label ”\u003e Surname:div\u003e replace the word "Surname" with "Patronymic"
  2. In line Ivanova”Id \u003d” pedit_last_name ”class \u003d” dark ”autocomplete \u003d” off ”\u003ereplace "Pedit_last_name"on the "Pedit_middle_name"
  3. Remove your last name from the code value \u003d "Ivanova"(will remain value \u003d ””)

Now copy the code you changed and paste it below the last name block. If it does not work, then right-click again and select the "Edit as HTML" mode.

After that, left-click anywhere in the code. A new "Patronymic" field will appear in the VK page settings. Then the console with the code can be closed, and in the field that appears, enter your patronymic or nickname. Next, you need to click the "Save" button.

It is worth noting that if you do not save the changes on your VK page right away, then in order to change the middle name you will have to do all the above steps again.

You can legally change your full name or add a patronymic on your page, you should not be afraid of any penalties from the VK administration.
