Press ZR on your Nintendo Switch and open the main menu. Navigate to Options, and then select Controls. From here, you should be able to see a full list of all the names currently registered into your game. While toggling over the name you want to delete, press X and confirm "Yes" when a pop-up appears to make sure you really want to get rid of the name.

And that's all there is to it! Now you can continue deleting old names to clear up your storage, or make new ones—and now that you know how to delete them, there's really no stopping your power.
