Server Name is choice, even if its a little log in message only its important. I wanted to make sure when I started that I got Figaro. I don't want to have no choice in a name that will identify me all over the place(i.e. look under all the avatars on the forum). To me its like char names and if those are being carefully handled I can't imagine why this isn't being.

Also those complaining about "names will influence choice and unbalance pop" -- thats why 8 names are removed. The overall less number is whats supposed to change the player base distribution, not remove people from popular ones.

Also anyone recall how full the first market ward was when the game started? Implying that doesn't happen with the other worlds.
