How do I, as a player, hide my name in the Turn Order?

We're playing 5E, using Beyond20 and having DND Beyond handle everything, no character sheets in Roll20. On the Turn Order / Combat Tracker window, the only token that has a name is mine. What setting do I need to use, as a player not a GM, to turn off/hide my name??

It's not possible short of having your gm disable access to your token.

If DM has set it that you can see the names of the other tokens, they will appear in the turn order next to the token. So if you are the only one seeing the name of your character this will look the same for all other players and their characters.

I suspect that your DM sees everyone’s names in the Turn Tracker, the other players see only their name, and you see only your name. 
I don't want to see ANY names next to the tokens.  Why is there no option to turn this off???  Of all the tokens, mine is the only one that doesn't need it's name.  This is stupid. I guess my only option is to hack the source with something like greasemonkey?

You will see the name in the turn order of any token for which you have the permission to see the name in the token settings. As long as the name plate is enabled, you have permission to see the name of your own character's token.&nbsp; That is how it works. You can probably disable the visibility of names with the stylus browser addon.&nbsp; Some details on ways people have used that extension can be found here:&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/9784281/slug%7D#post-9785143" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/9784281/slug%7D#post-9785143</a>
Thank you, I will take a look at stylus.

The turn order text comes from the token name, regardless of the nameplate settings. If you remove the name from the token settings then it will be blank in the turn order without needing stylus. Just be careful that the token name isn't used in any of your macros or they will not function as expected.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Stylus worked perfectly, thank you!&nbsp; I removed the name (for all tokens no matter what the GM setting is), increase the token size, moved other stuff around a bit.&nbsp; This is what I wanted, now it's perfect.&nbsp; :)
