Agree, poll needs more options. As a side note, my name will be what it always is in an MMO (not this forum username). In OB I used a ridiculous name, for humor though, but only because I knew it'd be wiped. I sincerely hope we don't see a rash of absurdity in Aion though. Can only take seeing so much xXxLegolasxXx and xXxLonewolfxXx before I want to puke. At least numbers aren't allowed.

This thread scares me.... WoW names are bad enough.... Korean type MMO's with very few if any restrictions make my head explode... at least there are no numbers this time around.... but thats only a small consolation.
Back when I played L2 at launch I remember the names of people in my guild... Tru3lov3 was one... then all the people with the names that start and end with a bunch of x's or whatever..... and phrases..... god its really awful...
Will there be an RP server maybe with stricter naming policies?

I'm going to have a Serious Name. I'm going with: Zorndorf
Fuck, I just lol'd.
I'm definitely beating you to that name!
I think any variation of Twiggy or something like Ragemachine. That or something more whimsical along the lines of Unicornman. I dunno, I'll wing it.
Probably just Twiggy or Mrtwiggy. (Zorndorf is hard not to choose though)

The western version enforced the name policy already used in other games, for example, no numbers, and the first letter is automatically upper cased while the following are lower cased.
So, even if you wrote xxIDIOTxx the game would automatically set it to Xxidiotxx, lol... still bad but not so bad =P and its the same you can do in any other western game

Is there a humorous category somewhere in there?

March on! - Lets Invade Pekopon
Is it going to support a first and last name?
Just a first name

Didn't try it, to be honest. But I don't think I saw anyone with first and last name. Or full caps, for that matter.
