I don't approve because:

(00:01)Renshi Hyatsuki: Hey Sephiroth, sup!
(00:02)Sephiroth: Hey Ren!
(00:02)Sephiroth: Meh, doing good. What about ya?
(00:02)Sephiroth: sup
(00:02)Sephiroth: bah...
(00:02)Sephiroth: Sup
(00:02)Sephiroth: Sup!

And I wonder how would it take place, because there are so many players here that you just can't remove surnames. Technically talking, you'll have database exceptions all over it.

I think it's pretty safe to assume that the OP meant by "option", they meant to only toggle off last names for him/her.
Of course it would be ridiculous if it turned off their surname for everyone.

If such a feature were to be put in place, it would work like the current toggle for turning names on or off like we currently have.

They should give us the option to toggle off players names, our own names, mob names and NPC names, currently all you can do is disable every name. I would very much like more options, i know what my damned character is called, i should be able to toggle it off.

Indeed.
If they do intend to implement more toggle options for names in the future it would be nice to have them all in one patch, too.

ITT: People who can't read that I said they should add an option, not remove them altogether.

Why not just have the option to toggle last names, toggle your own name (I know who I am, I dont need my name there) and a size toggle, so if you want to see the last name but think names clutter the screen (I do) you can resize names to make them smaller.

Having toggle options will make everyone happy, those who like it the way it is will stay happy and those who want the options toggled will be happy, everyone wins!

I think these two statements pretty much end the thread. Just need to start pushing for these changes.
