As long as you can make the BillboardGUI the script is just one line.

Player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(Character)
local Billboard = Instance.new("BillboardGui", Character)
Billboard.Size = UDim2.new(0, 1, 0, 1)
Billboard.Adornee = Character.Head
Billboard.StudsOffset = Vector3.new(0, 2.5, 0)
local Label = Instance.new("TextLabel", Billboard)
Label.Text = Player.Name
end)
end)
