Please help i can't get the text to change to the players name?

local Nametag = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Nametag")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
        local ClonedNametag = Nametag:Clone()
        ClonedNametag.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
        wait(0.1)
        ClonedNametag.Name.Text = player.Name
    end)
end)

Error: "ServerScriptService.NametagScript:8: attempt to index field 'Name' (a string value)"

is there an object in ClonedNameTag called "Name"? because when you do ClonedNametag.Name it just gets the actual name of the object. PoePoeCannon 519 — 5y

that might be because every object has a property called "Name" theking48989987 2147 — 5y
