I'm sure people wouldn't mind paying 5$ to be able to rename your character.
If you wouldn't mind paying 5$ for a rename like this post.

I'd also like to see others opinions on this subject.

What did you do?

For fun, to avoid harassment, or whatever reason they damn well choose. Also, it character id information is stored in blacklist, not names.

World of Warcraft also offers a name change service for $10. I still have yet to see why SE does not offer this same service. You would think a company that has an MMO that charges you monthly would have seen how they can improve their bottom line with something so simple and effortless as a name change service but nope not SE. They rather try and put broken glass back together instead.(FFXIV)

Lost mine to someone who was inactive for three years prior to the merge... complete BS

I went into an Assault party with out equips on as BST and didn't use any of my pets.
I also proceeded to aggro a full room of monsters which got everyone killed because for some reason, they can detect me by hearing.

Can't believe SE would put in where they can detect you speaking on the mic on Xbox Live. Everyone was mad at me and created shouts in port jueno so I must rename myself to escape my troubled past.

More? How is that? Blacklists don't change because of a name change.

And just how is it you obtained this information? Smells fishy.
Also.
It's your own fault for being unoriginal.

I obtained it from AH history. You know that same website where you hide all your info, and gearsets. Up until recently it showed transactions with the last entry being march 08' For some reason now it is just blank which is odd.

if thier name was retardedmonkey or somthing dumb then they deserve to change it mmo names are like email addresses they seem like a good idea to name it one thing now then some ppl that picked badly regret it later would prevent ppl quiting cause they hate thier name

I know some people would like it. I don't need it personally, but I would not be against it either. Would be nice for those who want it, and no, not only 'bad people' would use it and I doubt it would create any more problems than what there already is.

Many others have this service already, and as mentioned, it is already possible to change the name, even though inconvenient. Besides, it would be more money for them so I'm actually surprised it already isn't an option.

I would support a Name Changing service, as well as a service to change your race.
