I have no problem with surnames, I actually like it. Was like oooh me and my wife can get same surname with male/female char (later found out she decided to play Elezen male... lol)

Only thing I would want is easier way to send tell when typing lol but if its friends you can open /flist up and send tell from there... specially hard for those that are like... Masamune Aaaaaaaaaaaa (just example)...
