What do you mean 'users ethereum wallet name' ? I think you want to know the name of the user just by their eth address ?
Or you want to know what is the wallet name the user using ? Both of them are unknown just from the address.
For example you won't know what wallet im using now with just my eth address, myetherwallet or metamask or pc wallet or others.
Topic: Is it possible to get the name of ethereum wallet (Read 281 times)
Why do you want to know OP? If this is possible then its gonna break the law of decentralized and security to any users. There is a reason why user information cant be detracked from the address they are using. Unless they are registeres on a centralized exchange and somehow the details of the user were leaked or let say compromised there is a chance that you can get it.
I agree with you! Having a name for ethereum wallet is a huge risk for the security of users. Furthermore, hackers can easily take advantages of it. Therefore, I prefer it remained anonymous like right now. It's true that using name for ethereum wallet is way more convenient, though, sometimes we need to trade the convenience for another thing!

It's not possible at the moment but I think it is needed. There were many benefits to using an Ethereum Wallet if a username could be used. I think doing so would greatly increase the security of the wallet. It would be great to be able to do something like that.
well, I think the name on the wallet is not really important because it will provide information that you are the owner of the wallet, so in my opinion there is no need to create a name on the wallet because the most important thing is the nominal content of the wallet.

Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
As i understand to your question on where you do able to know on whats ethereum wallet which had been used by other people who sent coins to you then its not possible because there are lots of address which neither belong to an exchange or solely their own eth wallet address.You can somehow observed if it came from an exchange basing of transactions and the coins been holding
but identifying specifically on what exchange then i dont think that it can really be identified literally but if you do make up some search to trace it up then you would know it for sure.
but talking about identity on someones wallet then its impossible to happen.
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
I think NO. Even though there are different kinds of Ethereum wallet but it doesn't mean you will know what kind of wallet user's used.But the name of exchange AFIAK it will appear (I remember before when I was sending my token to a decentralized exchange it shows of my past transaction the Ethereum address of the exchange) on the Etherscan.io when you will track it. But the name of the Ethereum wallet, you can't. Even what kind of wallet it is, the;
- Software wallets
- Hardware wallets
- Paper wallets
I think it's impossible, name and wallet address does not link with each other as one can change the name of the wallet from time to time.
Just like a file name, you have the same file name but you can always rename it if you want.
I don't know how this question came into your mind, but you are maybe over-analyzing things which makes it complicated for you.
probably he is, be cause he used the word "HE" is his question.

If you are talking about getting the real name of the person that are using that Ethereum wallet then the asnwer to your question is definitely not possible.

Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
No, because wallets create their address on the blockchain itself so if you have the private key you can even switch to other wallets with the same address.But it i possible to find the exchange if it is from an exchange's address.Most likely if ever you find the address belongs to exchange.
The chance of knowing their info if they complete the KYC, but the chance is very very slim, exchange needs to protect
the identities of the people who used their platform. Unless there's something special that you can show them to provide the
information you need.
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
To understand you, you mean if you see a wallet address, by mare looking at it, you will say if the wallet address is from trust wallet or from Enjin wallet? If this is the case, then I don't think it is possible. Not even only for Ethereum wallet, in other wallets you can't factor the wallet name the user is using. I don't think this should be bothering you, and also you won't find the answer you are looking for because it is something that is not possible.
If you are talking about getting the real name of the person that are using that Ethereum wallet then the asnwer to your question is definitely not possible.
As you can see, if you are going to create your Ethereum wallet either using Ethereum, metamask and etc. then you can notice that your identity is hidden as the wallet
platform will not ask you for your name, KYC and etc.

Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
There is no way for you to find out the name or identity of the owners of ETH addresses or other platforms. That is why this market is decentralized, and you will always be safe in this market when using it. 
I know that it is possible to create your own Bitcoin wallet name, but I have never heard of such a possibility in Ethereum. In Bitcoin, you can make your own name of the wallet
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
there are wallet you can add name to your address but it will only works in that wallet once you use different wallet or re login using your private key you will never see it, its just a temporary name using the wallet.
Imtokens have this option by the way why did you ask that questions.
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
Your question is still not clear. No, you can't know the name of the person by seeing his/her address. But the addresses can be tagged on popular block explorer by you or the wallet owner so that you would easily recognize who the wallet belongs to. Popular wallet from exchanges are officially tagged by the exchange reaching out to the block explorer.
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
I don't think it is possible to get a name through your wallet address. Or if there is a way to do it then I don't think I have known about it. 
I don't understand your question, what do you mean is finding a wallet name like this?
So you want us to know who and where we send or receive tokens from? there's no way of knowing that

Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
I guess the question you've asked should look more like - "Is there a way to know what wallet is using a person by knowing only the public address of it?"And my answer is - no, I don't know a way to do this
@OP there's no way to know person behind the wallet he use, unless he use centralized exchanges and completing his KYC.

To get a Ethereum wallet, you should choose a good and trusted wallet which provide a full control of your wallet. Because you are going to hold your savings on it. If you choose a wrong one, you may lose your money. You can chose of Binance, Trust wallet for a safe side.
LOL, so you refer Binance (centralized exchanges) as a wallet? You're contradict yourself, you don't have a full control of your coins on centralized exchanges. After they got hacked and can't recover their loss, frozen/freeze your coins or ban your account... you don't have access to your coins again. Not your keys, not your coins, it's better to use DEX (e.g. Uniswap)[1] https://uniswap.org/
You mean like walletexplorer.com of BTC? It identifies what kind of BTC wallet the users use when you search it on walletexplorer.com.
I haven't have any idea what identifies ETH wallet when you search ETH address. I hope someone also deveops this kind of project so its going to be easy to track users not just the ethplorer and ethscan.
Then it's NOT impossible since exchange can give out identity for a certain circumstances. LOL. You just contradict your own statement. The OP didn't indicate the reason why he wants to get the identity of wallet owner that's why I answer it general which is possible through my method considering he is tracking his funds that recently hacked/scam. 
I didn't mean your post is wrong, nor did I contradict myself. If Op was recently hacked or scammed, he can't get any useful information on the hackers address from an exchange, as his stolen funds is nothing near a high profile crime, see the example I gave initially. I used impossible, rather than improbable to dissuade OP and other newbies who think it's possible to recover their funds, but go on to fall for a second scam in the process of recovery, as we've seen on numerous occasions.

Do you mean on what exchange or platform the address was being used or generated? Like for example, coming from Binance, etc.
Maybe to have a better response from the community, may we know what's the purpose?
There might be some other catch here so tell us what you like to do and let's see if there's a better way instead.
You can and what you need to do to visit this site https://ens.domains/
This is possible only if the user register their address to the ens. If not then it will still return the usual Ethereum address format.Only merchant or those who need to publicly publish their address use this, but for privacy oriented individual or the average joe, most of them don't use it.

Meowed..
Even if one tracks a users address to the exchange used, it'll be impossible to get the exchange to give out the address owners identity. Exchanges can only give out that info in a case of a high profile crime or hack, for example if it's a case like the famous twitter hack involving prominent individuals like the ex POTUS; so just tracking any address to an exchange will be more or less useless. 
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
Name or identity of the person behind that ETH address? The answer is NO, we don't have a way to find out, unless that ETH address comes from an exchange and that exchange has a mandatory KYC. But as far as blockchain analysis, you won't identify them, not in Bitcoin and not in Ethereum. 
Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
I think, their is some mistake on your question.Because we can only get a Ethereum Address and not a wallet name.

If you choose a wrong one, you may lose your money. You can chose of Binance, Trust wallet for a safe side.

No, because wallets create their address on the blockchain itself so if you have the private key you can even switch to other wallets with the same address.But it i possible to find the exchange if it is from an exchange's address. Unless you can track the address transaction outside the blockchain like when send his fund to an exchange which you can ask help for exchange to track user identity.

I think it's impossible to find out who owns the wallet from their public address unless the person themselves has declared it somewhere in the public domain. Also the type of wallet is also not recognisable I think.

Is it possible to get user's ethereum wallets name from the address he is using?
Technically speaking, it's not possible because ETH was anonymous which didn't require any personal info in able to create a wallet address so you have zero chance to get the name of the Ethereum wallet user. Unless you can track the address transaction outside the blockchain like when send his fund to an exchange which you can ask help for exchange to track user identity.
I'm answering your question based on your current statement.
I just want to elaborated your question, I think you want to know what wallet or platform wallet (like metamask or myetherwallet) user use seeing from the eth address, I don't think so, different when the user use exchange wallet when you use etherscan will be displayed the exchange name.
