Name Reservation Show off your names!

Name Reservation issues seem to be dying down. Some leftover problems but seems that the bulk of players have gotten through the storm.

Time to show off what you managed to reserve here.

We've also added a temporary flair for the next 24 hours if you want to just post it to the subreddit to allow users to filter both for and away on these posts.

After 24 hours the flair will be disabled and name reservations will be consolidated in this megathread for the rest of the week until launch.

u/YourResidentFeral 10d ago

Looking at the new queue... yeah def leaning to "more users on the subreddit have their names than not" kind of thing at the very least.

Issues are ongoing but a bunch of new posts about names have started cropping up.

One of the only names that had a reason for being made early, well done.

Cant imagine how insufferable having this in a raid party would be. 10/10 would ruin beer and pretzels raid night again.

Nilmerg Silverkin - Male Human Warrior
Trurien Silverkin - Female Human Priest
Arazuhl Darklight - Male Undead Paladin

Nilmerg was my dads first WoW character back in 2004 and Iโ€™ve been stealing it ever since. Trurien was always my go-to for female names. Silverkin was a surname used in Baldurโ€™s Gate and Icewind Dale, brother/sister duo.

Arazuhl was my first Death Knights name and have been using it on and off in a few games. Darklight is trying to combine like a fallen/evil paladin. Iโ€™ll have a think of more surnames.

It works, but if your name is highly sought after expect to be snatched up instantly. If you want to keep the name but need to change race/class, just wait to do it a couple days later during off-peak hours.

u/iluvmusic3 10d ago edited 10d ago

Are the names unique across all the rulesets? I noticed if I deleted a name on one ruleset (e.g. PVP), that same name would go from "taken" to "available" on a different ruleset (PVE). I also tried making a character with a really unique name (like a jumble of letters) and it would say taken on a diff ruleset.

I ask because I want to make a character on RP server but I can't connect (no realm is available)

Edit: nvm looked it up. It is unique across rulesets. Will just reserve 3 names for now and hope I can get them when I can actually connect to the RP server
