Also, you might consider that your character "goes by" his/her last name. Think like a military organization.nIn the example above, "Bloodspeed" may not sound like a traditional Elf name, but for the sake of the conversation, if his name were "Aeralius Bloodspeed", and he went by his last name, I think that could work.nnThis stuff is mostly common sense. Just think what any characters are called from a medieval/fantasy type world, movie or story. Put your own spin on it and viola! You might also look to the Lore and NPC's to see what type of names are given individuals of your race of choice.

Well, fair enough. If i'm not mistaken Orc's can take second names based on feats, great victories, styles in which they fight, things they are known for. Maybe you can work that into your story?

I have no problem with this. I've noticed the names have been getting leet-ish lately, plus there's been some inappropriate language. I even saw the banned "R" word recently by a Nyxian in a Battleground. The charter was pretty clear about this when I joined.
