Name Tag

A name tag is an item used to name existing mobs. It is used by naming the name tag using an anvil, and then right clicking any mob you want to name with the renamed name tag in your hand. Name tags can only be obtained from dungeons.

Usage and behavior
To use a name tag, it must first be renamed to the desired name with an anvil. The player can then right-click any mob to give the mob the name given to the name tag with the anvil. The name tag is consumed during the process and it will not be dropped by a renamed mob. Renamed mobs will have their name displayed over their head in the fashion as a mob named through a renamed spawn egg. Their names can only be seen if they are aimed at from 7 or fewer blocks away.

Trivia
The name tag was suggested by paulsoaresjr in his "Paul Plays Minecraft" series.

Villagers are not affected by name tags (they cannot be named with a name tag) and are only possible to name through a renamed spawn egg.
