I want to change my name, please
I have a sorc named Joshua the spelled arrow. I liked the name at the time because I used the bow mostly. Now I use sword and shield, dual blade, 2 handed, and bow. I want to change my characters name to fit more of my varied play style and wouldn't mind throwing a few bucks at it.

What. The. Crap????
To the OP's point: I agree--hopefully they'll come up with an option--probably costing real money--to do it in the future like many games do.

Um, CS forum.People believe what they either want to be true or what they are afraid is true!

I think it's something that's not necessary to better yourself at the game and wouldn't hurt. It's not a pay gate, just a simple feature that costs a few dollars.
I'm sure the elitist guy has more to say against it, but I'm not afraid of him. I'm just surprised it took more than a few minutes to get a comment like that.0 -
You shoukd open up a help ticket in game, they will contact you by email. I had great quick service, it wasnt the same problem but still the service was great!0 -

Ppl like OP that are just begging the devs to take their money is why 90% of the game nowadays are money leeching only and 1% passion.

Jexie✭✭This isn't possible currently, but on a Reddit post ZOS have said it's on the way: Reddit Post
It will most likely be a service purchasable from your account, but we'll see! Edited by Jexie on 5 June 2014 23:07Guild Leader of The Knights Who Say NiRn - a UK players community. www.knightswhosaynirn.co.uk

I'd say games are the way they are because of people like you--trollish and rude and mindlessly enraged.

Oh, I get it..your mom won't foot the bill for something as trivial as a name change, so NO-ONE should have one via their checkbook.
Thanks for clearing that up. @areohotahEdited by ZOS_UlyssesW on 5 June 2014 18:494 -
Kayira✭✭✭✭I think eso has enough problems at the moment to fix all the broken things, than thinking of something that cosmetic. But I am sure they will bring in something in the future when they have a bit of air to allow you to change your name.0 -

something so simpel should be free for everyone. but it won't if ppl like the op jump to pay for it even before money is requested from them.

ZOS_AmeliaR✭✭✭✭✭As @Jexie pointed out, we do plan to add character name changes as an additional service in the future, but there is not currently a system in place for this.
On a separate note, please keep this discussion civil and refrain from name-calling or other behavior that is not in line with our Community Code of Conduct. Thank you!5 -
Sweet. I agree it should be free, but I don't expect it to be. If it is, fantastic. If it's not, oh well. I think it's a better investment than buying a rainbow pig on FarmVille.1

I always pick an awesome name so to me this doesn't matter. With that said, I will suggest: One free name change per character, then you either pay for more/do not get another. Just give one free, after that it doesn't matter as this satisfies everyone0

✭I completely agree with the OP.
I feel my character has earned a new last name, and I should be able to change it.0 -
WhimsyDragon✭✭✭Been waiting for this option a couple months now... hope it happens soon
So many have been begging for it! 0 -
Kalman✭✭✭✭something so simpel should be free for everyone.
Looks like someone doesn't understand how complex databases work. (or how to spell simple)
I don't know how they designed the database for ESO. The smart thing would have been to use a unique id for each character then only have the name tied to that unique id in 1 place. Most likely the name is the unique id which means there are a ton of places this change would have to take place within a small time frame while you are not logged in. Not even to mention if the name is part of any PKs, FKs, or UKs.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Why make a name for a specific style of play and change your style of play
OR Better yet
Why not create a name for your character and not a name for a style of play unless you're committed to it and have tried it out for a bit first.

I had trouble finding a name I liked and went with my favorite style, bows and spells. Later on in the vet ranks I had lots of skill points to throw around and speced into being a tank, dual wield, and even a werewolf at one point. I want to change my name into something less specific0

I was a *** when I named my Orc. I capitalized the Gro, which was an oversight on my part and I didn't even notice till I was in my mid 30's. I contacted cs with what I thought was a reasonable request to lowercase that G.
I received a swift response I assume was mostly automated, telling me it was not possible. I immediately figured it was a lie, because if that was true nothing could be done to alter inappropriate names, but I digress.0
