Character Naming Convention Question

[uaprsf]

With the Desert theme in Qalia and its Arab overtones I have a question about names.
Many names from the real Arab world have a "-" in the last name along with Capital letters "inside" the name. i.e. ad-Din

Currently i get a "not allowed character" error msg when submitting a name following the above convention.

Will this be changing with release?

Not that we're aware of :)

Yeah it sucks... My iconic name is 16 characters long (which is legit in EQ, EQ2, etc) but Vanguard limits to 14 characters. Also I like last names with ' or ` in them... like D'Arrus or D`Almarra. Can't do that either.

I also could never figure out if it was this ' or this `. :)

This is going to sound ridiculously noob, but I dont have Beta... can you give your character a last name? And 14 characters is unacceptably short, so everyone e-mail Sigil and demand longer names. Thanks. :D

Well it's 14 chars for first and 14 chars for last so at least that's 28.
