Hi OP, while you dislike your in game name remember that people in game dont care and they dont pay atention on this while you socialise with other, personaly im neutral to your name and nothing wrong with it.
EvE isn't game, its style of living. |

1. Let characters change their name for 1 plex. 2. Only allow name changes once per year. 3. Keep a name history for each character so that name changes can't be used to hide previous criminal or scamming activity. There's no reason for them not to implement this. My EVE Videos |

You think you have problems with folk unable to pronounce your name?
Most folk get around it by calling me Jo, Uncle Jo or Stalin.
Best is when folk tell me that my name is that of a of a mass murderer.
Wiki is a mind expanding internet thingy.
This always makes me smile, so I tell folk I chose the name randomly.
Usually sets their mind at ease. This is not a signature. |

There are names in EVE that sound much more stupid than yours, look at mine^^. A friend told a policeman his name is "Nick Tamer" (!!!), but the policeman couldn't understand french and he got away with that. Jeff is brilliant btw :) |

But James if you were to change your name how would I keep track of your goon guff on the forums?
I am far too lazy (nor should I have to) to check someones history in case they may be someone with a new name worth following, or avoiding.
Folk should live with their name, biomass or buy a new character with a name they like. This is not a signature. |

According to the EVE Online Naming Policy section 3. Violations part a. :Only character names that are deemed as inappropriate are eligible for a possible name change. Names will not be changed for any other reason.
As there is not much chance you can ever convince a GM that your name is inappropriate, I can only advice you to not even try.
Besides that, Notting wrong with your name. I know plenty of people that have utterly unpronounceable names in any language. Most of them on purpose... ISD Ezwal Commander Community Communication Liaisons (CCLs) Interstellar Services Department |

Don't the guys you fly with call you something in coms, stick to that or come up with a voice only call sign. Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction... |

I understand the problem - didn't think about my name either and later found out that there's a mission in the game with the same name, relating to some dumb chick getting abducted all over the place.
Let me know how it worked out for you... |

You think you don't like YOUR name OP. *Sigh*
Seriously doubt a petition will work I'm afraid. Just stick 'call me Jeff' in your bio I guess.

Well, considering the Korean War Memorial (IIRC) in Washington was made by someone called Gaylord... *shrug* |

(Fade in on ordinary interview set. Interviewer sitting with man with large semitic polystyrene nose.)
Interviewer: Good evening. I have with me in the studio tonight one of the country's leading skin specialists - Raymond Luxury Yacht.
Raymond: That's not my name.
Interviewer: I'm sorry - Raymond Luxury Yach-t.
Raymond: No, no, no - it's spelt Raymond Luxury Yach-t, but it's pronounced 'Throatwobbler Mangrove'.
Interviewer: You're a very silly man and I'm not going to interview you.
Raymond: Ah, anti-semitism!
Interviewer: Not at all. It's not even a proper nose. (takes it off) It's polystyrene.
Raymond: Give me my nose back.
Interviewer: You can collect it at reception. Now go away.
Raymond: I want to be on the television.
Interviewer: Well you can't. *** Vote MTU For CSM *** "They feel the need to cover their ears and eyes in horror at your very presence." --áPontianak Sythaeryn Omnis nomiom nom nom nomi |
