    As of now there is no way to have your name changed - but there have been a lot of requests for it. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw something in the nearish future.

    It will take some time however just server transfer to another server doesn't matter which. Then make a character with your name on your server then transfer back. It will force you to change your name.

    They stated that the chance there is someone with your exact name the person on the server you are transferring to gets to keep the name and you will be prompted to change yours. I was debating on doing this but I didn't want to waste the money on it. Pro Healer is just an epic name and my friend was going to change his to Pro Tank

    Jeez, that's a lot. I guess there aren't free transfers anymore? (or if there ever was, but I assume there was bc of the server issues on launch day)

    The actual price is $18. It would be $36 total for both transfers just to change your name.

    Also it appears there isn't a required cooldown time for this service. Based off what is written in that post you should be able to do both transfers back to back.

    Also regarding the name change:

    Characters with the Same Name

    In the event the name of your character has already been chosen by another character on the destination World, you will be required to change your character's name when logging in for the first time.

    Although it is possible to confirm the availability of your character's name when submitting your application, multiple applications bearing characters with the same name may necessitate the renaming of your character, depending on the order in which the applications are processed.
