    [Suggestion] Friends List tracks name change history of friends.

    I have multiple in-game friends who I seldom see because our playing hours do not always intersect. Unfortunately a couple of these friends also enjoy fantasia and name changes, and it's sometimes very difficult to figure out who they are when their new persona is seen in game. I know they are a friend because the color of their name text on my screen is that of a friend, but their name is unfamiliar. If the Friends list allowed you to see the history of name changes - only for Friends - it would make keeping track of these character grasshoppers much easier.

    Have you tried asking who they were before the change? I usually can keep up by looking at their job list and short message they leave there.

    Of course. However, over the years a friend list fills and churns, it's hard to remember folks you don't even play with on a monthly basis. And even harder to track the changes.

    You should also be able to Google their original name, and when you click their Lodestone profile link on Google results, it'll link you to their new name

    It's also a handy way to track people when they try to fantasia+namechange to escape their crimes
