Yeah, I believe this still is an issue, Talven. I appear to get this when certain color codes are introduced. However, there are other times where my name can have color codes. I stated why the issue occurs in the comment above, so there no need to explain further, but i believe the only way this bug can be fixed is if the devs change something with the nametags or color codes.

Yes, whenever you add color codes, for example: "&3" to a username, it takes uses up two username slots, thus forcing a skin from that name. In my case it's a steve, but there has been a time where I was forced to use a joker skin as well. My IGN is "TheCrazyCrafter5", so color codes remove two slots from my name, because the maximum is 16, resulting in "TheCrazyCrafte" with a default skin(It's really annoying). If you could somehow add extra slots for color codes, I, and i'm sure many other, would be so happy. This issue seems trivial, but as an avid Minecraft Multiplayer, it's sad to have people call you a noob, based solely off your skin and be more swayed to assume you're a hacker, since i'm also a generally good player. Thanks for your time... 😞

Yes, this is true. It is really annoying. I am and avid fan and regular player of Minecraft Multiplayer, yet this is very annoying, because people hate when you have a steve skin. I do too. I even hand made my skin. Whoever you are, please resolve this. I know it can't be that hard, but it would mean so much to me and probably many others.
