It works immediately. Just pay for it. Log on and you have to change the character’s name before you can use it.

What do you mean? I literally did this 2 weeks ago in an alt. The name was immediately available to change.

Oh wait, I see. He said again as in immediately after changing it. My bad.

IIRC, you get a "free" name change if you transfer to another world and your name happens to be taken.
But that's a big IF.

It is not that big of an if, just make another character with said name of the target server either with a 8-character per world subcription (so that you can use your main after transfering) or with a free trial. However, it requires that you do not have any house to lose by transfering...

With the slight complication that a world transfer costs more than a name change in the first place, and then you need a second one to get back to your original server.

Indeed, but if you're moving servers you can use this to get a free name change with it.

Plot twist, Lalafell mafia is looking for op and he has to change identity.
