Namingway Card items?

[Aethaeryn]

If they institute a name change feature, they need to:

1. Add a feature where you can display the "formerly known as" name in search data for that character.
2. Automatically update Blists with the new character name.

Supposedly blacklists already do this, and if so, that sorta removes any reason for your #1 point too.

Besides that, people keep the same character ID on lodestone, so if you really want to be some creepy stalker, you can just bookmark people in case they change their names.

Since you guys still complain about that black list thing, there is your proof that black-listed individuals name changing will NOT affect your gameplay.

you know when they introduce the new race, they will allow a name change, possibly with buying the expansion gives a fantasia like us 1.0 characters when we got the option to also change our names.

We would just like to know for sure if they are still planning this. Or even just some updated information since all the info we do have is at least a year old. Not denying that that is a possibility or anything, we would just like to know if plans are in the works.

Anyway. I decided to pose the question on the London Fan Fest questions page. If you support this, some likes on my comment would be awesome! Just to let them know we are indeed still interested. Thanks everyone!

Willing to buy an option to press "Like" 10x :P

But jokes aside, I really hope they do something! Now that we have this cash shop service, single character purchases are available - meaning implementing a name change item or service would be much easier to do so rather than a service added to the entire account (which is why they probably have been stalling on this)

Lol! It's gotten more likes than I thought though, so that's good. The ones farther down didn't seem to be getting as much attention...But yeah. I do certainly hope that with the single character purchase changes and such that this will come up soon.

A recent re-read over the naming convention lore prompts me to push this one up again.

C'mon, give us these things. What if I want to be a lalafell or elezen? You wrote all that backstory! Let me be like, Sanzuzu Sanzu or Sanzelle Marie. :P

Alternatively, you're gonna force me to headcanon up a story about how the cat people adopted an elf or whatever and that's just silly.

Did anybody notice this in the 2.4 patch notes?

The new item "retainer Fantasia" has been added, which allows the one-time alteration of a retainer’s appearance, gender and name.

Looks like we got our name change!

That only applies to your retainers, though.
