Display Names?
There is a new item in the Gem store that allows you to change the name of a character if that is what you are asking for. As for your account name, you’ll have to stick with Gilamar.8974 I guess.

I was wondering is there a way to change it? This used to be my older brothers account which he handed down to me since he stopped playing the game. Well if anyone can shed some light that would be great! ^.^
Pretty sure ANet frowns on selling/giving away/using other people accounts. I don’t think I would bring it to their attention to much. ^^
Even if it’s a sibling that no longer plays? That is kinda dumb. :s

I was asking about the account name; Thank you for answering though. I’m kinda sad I can’t change it. :x

I am pretty sure members of the same household are permitted to share accounts. There was something in one of the legal documents about it. Or at least I could have sworn it used to be in there.

I believe that the only exception is that a minor child living in the same household can share an account with a parent.

My impression is that it’s discouraged, if not forbidden. I know people do it but the reason they frown upon more than one person sharing accounts is that people fight, they divorce, and then one side denies the other access to the game and ANet gets dragged in as a referee as to ownership.
Lets say, as an example, OP is playing the game for a year or so, he and his brother have an bad argument about something or other and his brother gets vindictive. He contacts support and says he was hacked and gets the password changed. What can OP do at this point? Not much. He is not the owner and unless his brother gives back the account, it’s gone.
People pull this sort of crap all the time. Anet made the no sharing rule to protect the players.
I was SUPER Lucky…
During beta I had Azpekt.3265 and I Hated it.
I didn’t know what a Display Name was either.
But I requested to change my Display name when game get’s released after Beta and somehow, Now sure How, I was able to change it.
Finally! My Display name is now: DreamyAbaddon.3265
So yes, I think there is a way like I did, but dont quite remember how. >.<
I understand the frustration.
