    Character Naming Question?

    Is it physically possible to name your character in Guild Wars after an NPC. In all other MMOs I have played you cannot. Does the same ring true for this game?

    I would be pretty sure that it's not.

    Besides, even if it was someone else would have done it by now, wouldn't they :)

    (yes that was my first post - since joining in October, lol)

    That sort of thing is possible, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to name a character "Prince Rurik".

    Not allowed to make Mage Henchmen (or henchman, which ever you tried)? Most likely someone beat you to the punch, not the game preventing it. Consider that most NPC names have already been used, the only sure way to get an NPC name is to find one everyone hates, or put the name on your pet with the /petname command.

    You wouldn't believe the difficulty I get trying to find funny names that havent been used for my pvp characters. Amazingly, my wamo name of Too Dumb To Die hasn't been taken over even after deleting the character.
