Yes, I was not sure expecting this but now I am excited.

[UltraFennec]

Excellent. I'm sure I'll hate someone's name after awhile.

[Maril]

Woohoo! I successfully changed Sastras name to her actual ic name. I've been wanting to do that since I selected Sastra as my RP character a year ago, and I've had a placeholder for the name all this time. 

Best news to wake up to

[Geisterfuchs]

Yay! Finally!

[Delilah Scythewood]

Likely won't use this except for one of my alts or for Lili if she remarries.

[allgivenover]

If Natalie and Kage change their names, I'm going to be kind of sad

[Rythulian]

Been waiting for this. I have an unused Miqo'te account that I want to get back to using. 

 

Going to change the name, fantasia it, and add myself to the lalafell ranks.

[Aldotsk]

It gets kind of tiring when we have to start explaining that it is not their "character name". X_X

 

So I am glad this service is available now.

 

EDIT:

And the fact that I don't want to level new characters every time too.

[Coatleque]

Finally, I can kill of this boring and generic paladin and turn into the character I was always meant to be.
