TikTok users are experimenting with a Lego filter, which turns their names into personalized Lego figures. However, some users are confused as to how to find the filter on the app.
Filters that use your name have become a big trend on TikTok lately, with some of the most popular filters being the “Name as Emoji” and the “Name as bouquet” filters.
The newest filter that is gaining popularity on the platform is the Lego name filter, which sees users using their names to create unique and personalized Lego figures.
There are two different versions of the filter, a “male” version that creates masculine-looking figures and a “female” version that creates more feminine-looking figures.
At the time of writing, the female version is more popular, with over 18.3 thousand videos published using the filter, compared to the male one which only has 614 videos using it at the time of writing.
