Suggestion: Hide own name.

[Aztecguy82]

I want to request for SE to add for the target's name to change color as well on the TARGET UNIT FRAME. Not only on top of the target. I play with "names off" and have a hard time seeing what mob my party is engaging. All names on screen just drive me nuts!
This is the unit frame of the currently selected target. When the target is an enemy, the unit frame displays the following information:
- An icon showing whether that enemy is active or non-active
- Enemy's level
- Enemy's HP gauge
- Enemy's enmity towards you (when engaged only)
My suggestion - Display name color ( as in if is red, white yellow etc)

how bout not only hiding last name, but optional to either hide last or first name <3

That makes no sense. Imagine how many ppl there will be with the names like "The" or "Taru". The game demands that we make double names and thus some of us created names that work only when bound together.

uhhh isnt that why i say optional to choose either one? :| or not at all? .... as in for own name... =.="

I can't imagine any reason to hide just last names. Besides looking silly for many people (though it would be their own fault I guess for making a silly name like The ____") I cant imagine wanting to hide last names but not the whole name. I'd either want names on or off, period.

But the hiding names just applies to your own screen right? I mean yeah you can hide your last name if you so choose, (assuming they allowed it which i'm guessing won't be right now considering what was said about bazaars and LS icons) but everyone else would still see your full name assuming they have it all turned on.

I know we discussed this awhile back when the dev. team was looking into it, as well as taking in player feedback for what they’d like to toggle, but we finally got an update on the situation! The following options are aimed at implementation in patch 1.21.

The ON/OFF display feature won’t only apply to your own name. You will be able to set ON/OFF values for displaying each of the following categories:

• Your own character
  • Name/Icon
  • HP Bar
• Party Members
  • Name/Icon
  • HP Bar
• Other Players
  • Name/Icon
  • HP Bar
• NPC
  • Name/Icon
• Enemies
  • Name
  • HP Bar
  • Level
  • Enemy Icon
  • Enmity

It’s currently not possible to toggle the linkshell and bazaar icons independent of your name in this feature (for example, leave name displayed, but hide linkshell/bazaar). We will look into including this functionality in version 2.0.

We were aiming to implement the name plate display ON/OFF setting in patch 1.21, however, there were a lot of other items that were prioritized, such as UI changes for the job system, so we needed to push it back a little. Currently we are planning to implement this in patch 1.22, but since there are important tasks like Hamlet Defense, we cannot promise for sure that we will get this into the game in 1.22 but we'll try our best!
