W/Me

Here is what I know after reading several FAQs.

I pick a first and last name. It can't be vulgar or offensive. If I want to have three words like "Redfang the Rapacious" I put a space in the last name.

Here is what I don't know:

If someone sends me a tell, so they have to type my first and last name? (If so, I want a short name).

Is there a requirement that the name be fantasy related, or will there be xxxpwnzorsxxx running around? I don't plan to have a l33t name but I am curious.

Can a name include a title? Captain Redfang? Sir Redfang? Some games don't allow that.

Btw, if you see any Redfangs running around they are not me, as I plan to make a female character.

I just want to know the rules because I am sitting here trying to come up with a name to pass the time until the event.

They have to type your full name. If you are in the person's friends list they can choose "send message" in the box next to your name. If you have said something recently they can click on your name and it will save them the trouble of typing. If you are not on their friends list or haven't said anything recently then they have to type it.

Name can be anything, but if it is offensive it will be changed. Some words won't even be allowed since they will be blocked if you try to type them in.

Titles are fine. One of my guildmantes has "Sir" in front of every male name and "lady" in front of the other name.

And numbers arent allowed in your name, are they saving this for later or are numbers banned from names completely ?
