Demonix Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hi, I want to come back to SWTOR, might not stay very long since I can't play my old characters, I have to rename them but nothing works, even random typing, it always says name unavailable, what gives!? Thank god I made no purchase and only used the 7 free days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyaniteD Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hm, try http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen/ and go for "Long Names" ? The longer the name, the better your chances that it, or a derivate of it, is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papazmurf Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 If you don't mind your a's and e's with apostrophes use an alt code and more often than not you'll get the name you wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really isn't hard to find a name unless you are trying to be like everyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSeventhJedi Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I just started another toon this week, and it only took me a few minutes to come up with a name I liked (5 characters, even,) with no weird accents or apostrophes. Don't get me wrong, TONS of names are taken, but you have to be patient before you can get creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Wicked Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) if you are trying to be unique like everyone else and choose Revan, Yoda,skywalker, obi-wan, shan, vader, etc. good luck. I often wonder if people get massive headaches when thinking of names like that... Feels really, really, really hard to fathom such inquisitive and creative mind.

Reno_Tarshil Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I am very disappointed in you, Silly Wrath. Should be proud. You dunno how hard it is to get a name variation x3 with alt keys in the dark times of people naming their characters and poofing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
