Just to clarify, since I've changed my Gamertag already, does that mean I can't do it from the website and instead have to do it via Xbox One?

yes you only get the one chance to change it on xbox.com or windows 10. It's xbox one only from then on, as you need to have a 1yr tenure and paid for gold longer than 1yr.

I know you didn't quote me here but I think they will. They'll probably come under the "Proper names" category since you could get your initials, for example, the user who made this thread "FR". 

Also thanks @Nemesis

Oh yeah i didn't think about that aha.

I totally agree, lets say your name is "Jack" then you could have "J1" so yeah i think thats its a high possibility.

You can still change it on Xbox.com even after the first change dude.

Go onto your Xbox profile on the website and then click change gamertag, if you have a PayPal account or a card added to the account then it should change straight away.

Most two character gamertags have a space version that is on the 360, so at least two letters will still be kinda rare aside from the frew V1s without a spaced version.

Me and a friend noticed a few tags that got reset for staff earlier, so we kinda saw this coming. Got a list of all two letters without a spaced version that is a v1.

I've had a list for awhile incase something like this would happen. It's been a long time since the last reset so i wouldn't doubt this kind of action.

Can someone link me a source of this information? Would like to try to get one myself.

EDIT: Nvm found one,

It'd be pretty pointless to get a list when the qualifications to obtain one is pretty high. Good luck to all I guess, I'll probably take a look at one I want.
I suggest not naming what you want lmao, it'll only give other people ideas.
