Suggestion: Hide own name.

Also while we're at it, make the logical extension for the rest of your gear, not just the head in the following format too:

The point of hiding headgear is to let your hairstyle show. There's no similar (good) reason for the other slots. I don't want to see everyone running around appearing to be in the buff...

I am in favor of every slash /command that was mentioned in this thread, but I'm going to take a step further.

[SIZE="5"]Make these options/toggles along with old ones available in the configuration menu in game. Its absurd that players are expected to memorize all these commands. [/SIZE]

a name toggle option i think would make things a bit more immersive, because like someone before me said, you know your own name so having it above your head is absolutely redundant. display option = yes please.

Hurryap! !!!!

I know there is an option to toggle names on/off but this hides all player names including your own. I would like to only hide my own name like you could in FF XI.

Maybe it's because i'm playing on a low resoultion but the names just seem really big and it's always there floating around in the middle of the screen. It's a little distracting and i don't need to be reminded of my own name, i'm not likely to forget.

If you can already do this i appologise, but i don't see a way to do it.

Your thoughts?

+1 for the OP. I know what my name is.

EDIT: I have more to say about this.

I would also like the ability to, instead of a HP bar, display a number or percentage, or nothing at all.

I reeeealy like this idea!

I'm in support of the other people who have basically said we need chat filter type groupings extended to HP bars and names. There should be options for every "group" like enemy targets, currently engaged enemies, party members (and alliance eventually), non-party players, and of course yourself.

I am surprised the option to hide your own name wasn't there from the start and on by default. I'm also surprised something as simple as this hasn't been patched into the game yet. Thanks to whoever bumped this thread I guess it needed to be brought up again as we still don't have it. Anything FF XI had FF XIV should have, besides I thought it was standard for most MMOs to let you hide your name.

Hide own name, YES PLEASE
