Covering FFXIV Player Character Online Identity - Curiosity

However if you move to a server with your current name...you get to name change for free. I believe the moment a character is deleted or transferred...that name is immediately available.

That's a rather handy trick for getting a free name change when moving! Although do all accounts now include free alts? If not, it still may be cheaper to get an alt for a month vs paying the $10 for a name change (no clue what the actual pricing is so I could be totally wrong ...).

The free name change would only be available if transferring to a world where that name is already taken. If you transfer to a world where the current name isn't taken...then you will need to buy a name change as well.

But if you make an alt on that world first, using your existing name, that should force a name-change when you officially move over.

Yeah that might actually work.
