Changing an object's name

Unity Engine
1

How can I change an object’s name with javascript coding? Thank you! :slight_smile:

ReferenceToGameObject.name = “New Name”;

Or just name = if this is accessing the gameobject the script is attached to.

Every object has a name attribute, it’s in the docs.

Unsurprisingly, Object.name is the first result when you use the search function.

Sorry, my mistake, it does exist in gameobject, under inherited members… inherited from objects i presume? Anyway, thanks. :slight_smile:

Correct, GameObject extends Object.
