Q:

If I use a Name Change Contract, will it also change my name in every area of the game.

E.g. The My Story Pane, The Wall of Champions, etc… ?

A:

I have done over at least a dozen name changes with no problems.

BG: 52 alts, 29 lvl 80’s. They all look good, so I am done with the game: Oct 2014

When you change your name via contract, it changes your name. Period. It should change it everywhere.

That is how your character is identified.

If you find it has not, please report it as a bug.

That’s my concern. I already know that is should change it everywhere. I know I would have to report it as a bug, but you know how long they take to fix bugs and my OCD would drive me crazy throughout that period.

I’m wondering if anyone has already done it and can confirm that it changes everywhere.

Your character’s name is <charname>, and when anything calls you by name it’s programmed as <charname>. Whatever your name is gets plugged into <charname> and if it changes the new name becomes <charname> There is no <oldcharname>, your old name never existed as far as the game is concerned. If any text doesn’t use <charname> then it won’t call you by name.
