Character creation concerns.

I like to have a nice short name for my character.

Good names are always taken and I have to decide between a few mediocre ones. But I cannot see what options I have and instead I must go with the 1st mediocre name I come up with because of the MAX 3 character deletion limit with 24 hour cooldown.

I hope one day ZMO will make it so that you can either delete a character infinite amount of times if you didn't play him. Or add "check availability" button next to name field.



Also character voice preview should be reworked cause unless you press the button 50+ times and get a headache from all the screaming and shouting you cannot be 100% sure that your badass hunk character wont start screaming like a little kid when falling from a cliff.

Wish they could rename voices to something meaningful like Heroic, Valiant, Brute, Scholar and make voice preview follow specific order e.g. laugh1, laugh2, cheer1, cheer2, etc.

    Your naming problem can be solved with a pencil and paper. Write down a list of possible names. If all of them are taken, that's a sign that you need to come up with more original names, not that a game system needs to be changed.

    Spelling tweaks.

    I originally rolled up "Nellas Riverthorn" as a Sorc (I initially only played sorcs as I insist on having a familar/pet), and made her a short bosmer - not knowing that ZOS has some strange ideas about racial heights (don't even get me started).

    Played her for quite a while (still have her) and learned a lot of woodworking, and then realized that NB would fit her better.

    But I didn't want to delete all that woodoworking crafting knowledge - so I decided to run "two" of her for a while. Thus, taller, NB "Nellas Riverthorne" was born.

    Then ran into horrific crafting/quest bugs, and eventually decided the heck with it, she just exists in a time loop or something. Still have "both of them".

    You can always add a middle name, a silent letter, a bit of a tweak, add or take out a hyphen.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Yeah, pretty sure Bob and Mike are taken by now. Think up some more original names.
