Free Up Names (Suggestion)

[Cherrycubus]

I'm not against this coming to the game, but I am wondering how you got into the situation in which a name you want is taken. Due to being able to use first names and surnames it is incredibly unlikely that someone would have both parts of the full name you want...unless the name you want is from a famous character in media, example: Cloud Strife. Or if you're trying to be as generic as possible with a John Smith sort of name.

I’ve tried using my real life name and some variants of it but unfortunately they are all taken on my server, mostly by level 1 characters. It seems inevitable as FFXIV has been out for 10+ years, so all the inactive low level characters made over that decade (or less depending on server) have accumulated. I genuinely hope something will be done about it, but if not - oh well. It’s certainly not a priority issue but it would free up so many names: both popular, generic names but also others.
