Unable to name my first character [bug?]
I never knew people had such a hard time finding character names. I usually just type the first thing that comes to mind and it's good to go.
If you really are having trouble, just tag your name with something first then underscore, like GGG_KewlName I am for unique character names, I don't want another char to be named the same as mine. |

" Exactly this, just use a personal tag for each character - this will (almost) guarantee you that the name isnt taken yet and in addition it will help friends and other players to recognize you ingame over several characters. Hardcore Theorycrafter

You can't have non-unique names in a game where you'll actively meet other people, i.e towns/public parties. Having 10 people with the name 'Shadow' or something is going to be stupid when you walk into town and can't figure out who's who.
It honestly isn't that hard to think of a good name, but usually a lot of people get frustrated and go generic. |

I have 13 characters so far (including some very recent ones) and only experienced a name being taken once (using a maori name of a huge tree was apparently too obvious for a marauder :-D). Solved that by using an underdash.
But I don't use "popular" names often. E.g. the name of my witch is something from a Sindarin name generator and my ranger goes by an inuit-ish name (which has been my name of choice for first female characters since a certain frost mage girl ten years ago). Bonus: People tend to remember my characters a lot better (than xXpopularnameXx, anyway). So, if you think a bit outside the box you should be able to come up with a nice/cool & unique name. :-) Exit, pursued by a Plummeting Ursa.

Are you new to mmo's? i ask because this has been going on for a long long while now...you'll never be able to us the same name as an other player on the same server if there was more than 1 server then you could try on a different one.

Easy to make a name with 2 or 3 words joined together, rarely do I find the name taken , just have to think a bit :)
