Do you regret your name choice?

[Violyre]

So I've been having some issues with my name lately. I'd barely hit 50 before I discovered what issues my name would cause.

And before anyone comments that I shouldn't have picked a name based on MLP (love it or hate it, I don't care.), the issue is with my last name, not the first.

I used Fleetflight because I used it for an OC of mine's name. What I never saw was people looking at my name and thinking it read as a certain male toy. This has led me to some very uncomfortable messages from people, especially when combined with the first. It's not really harassment, so it's not like I feel as if I should report them. I'd just like to avoid those messages in the first place because I find it uncomfortable.

I know there are many posts out there about this, but I think if more people gave the reason WHY they want to change it, it may garner some notice.

Not at all related but I just saw a retainer yesterday with said male toy's name.

I do not regret my name. But if I ever wanted to change my race, which I don't, it'd be a problem.

Like, a male Roegadyn named Momomi Momi. I've actually seen a male Roegadyn with a female dunesfolk name before. Bet that person regrets it.

I love my name. A lot. But I heard of people wanting to change their name so they create a character in another server with their current name, then they request for a transfer, and since that name is already used, they're forced to change it. Then to transfer back to their original world.

I'm aware of this method, but the issues with it are spending money to do two transfers, the first of which either makes you miss out on doing events with friends or making your character boring for the days before it allows you to change again. It depends what the cost would be if they had an actual name change option as well.

I changed from Seeker of the Sun to Keeper of the Moon and my name is no longer lore friendly. I want a change to remove the apostrophe :/

My name is Short Round, and I'm a Lalafell. I have no reason to regret anything.

Name: Marcella Cat

... I started the game cause my friends wanted me to be their tank and convinced me to give it a try after we all left gw2.

They were all kitty people with the name Cat, I liked the kitty people enuff to roll with it. So Marcella Cat ... lil warrior Cat ... makes perfect sense!!

But now I changed my Race cause like 80% of the players I see are kitty people and Roe are AWESOME!! Also, I found that our server is kinda full oh ass holes so now I want to go to a RP server. And on top of that ... I want this character to be named Bayonetta Beretta if the gun class isn't DPS :/

I only regret my user/account name, I wish I'd used my character name Fizzle Dizzle.

If anyone knows how I can change it, please lemme know.

I believe when you're creating it, they tell you that you can't change it.
