Short answer: Keychains and name tags are easy backpack personalization options, but keep them lightweight and securely attached. Use a keychain for style or recognition and a name tag when actual identification is needed.

Keychains are mostly visual

They work well for color, hobbies, characters, or symbols.

Name tags are functional

They can carry contact information but should display only what you are comfortable making public.
