Try fishing. Nametags can be caught when fishing as part of the treasure category
Trade with villagers. Librarian villagers trade nametags for 20-22 emeralds a piece as part of their tier 6 trade.
Renaming the Nametag
Get an anvil. Once you have obtained a nametag you need to get an anvil as well as several experience levels to rename it. If you do not rename the nametag it will be useless until you name it in an anvil.
Go into the anvil, put your nametag in the topmost left slot. Go to the top bar and delete the text saying "Name Tag" then write whatever you would like to name the mob. After you have written what name you want go to the topmost right slot and grab the nametag. You can now rename the animal.
