STEP RIGHT UP!! GET YOUR CUSTOM SURNAMES HERE!!

Guide Moregan here...

If you need an accent grave in your surname, I'M YO`UR M`AN!!

I am really good at those. I'm at 200 in surnaming. I'm considering specialization.

Oh, the only thing is, if I set your custom surname, it has to conform to the following simple list of easily digested and easily explained guidelines: (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2651) (approximately 60% down on that page)

Naming Policy
Character names in EverQuest should be thematically consistent with the high-fantasy environment of EverQuest. These guidelines apply both forenames and surnames, and also to the combination produced by a forename and surname. (For example, the first name Clint and the last name Eastwood are both acceptable names separately, but Clint Eastwood is not.)

The server staff can, in accordance with all described rules and ultimate discretion, provide assistance with surname changes, including names with multiple capital letters and/or a single accent grave (`). Examples of this are Kirn V`Last, Harl McTarnigal, Leeza MacTeagan.

The server staff will be happy to change your surnames on request, however we will not provide forename changes unless the name violates the naming policy.

The following names are considered unacceptable.

Vile, profane, rude, or racist names including common swear words, anatomical references, racial slurs, and homonyms of these words.
Combinations of words that produce an offensive result (e.g. Hugeazz, Tug Mcgroin).
Names of religious, occult, or significant historic origin (e.g. Jesus, Allah, Satan, Stalin).
Copyrighted or trademarked names of products, characters, services, or concepts (e.g. Bigmac, Marlboro, Sony).
Names from popular media. These names can be either fictional (e.g. Rambo, Darthvader) or non-fictional (e.g. Garth Brooks, Pierce Brosnan, George Washington, Michael Jordan).
Common words and phrases that would not be found in the time, place and setting of EverQuest (e.g. Switchblade, Phaser, Toaster, Cannabis).
Proper names from EverQuest (e.g. Rathe, Karana). This also includes the first or last name of any significant EverQuest NPC (e.g. Dorn, Trumpy, Karn).
Any form of a name similar to current or past Project 1999 Staff (e.g. Nilbog, Rogean, Sirken).
Names chosen with the intent or possessed with the effect of harming the reputation of a player or Staff member.
Forenames containing titles within them, such as, but not limited to: The, Lord, Lady, Master, King, Knight, Sir, Father (e.g. Sirtallon, Lordeagle, Mothermaggy, Darksister).
Names that contain sentences (Ikillorcs), phrases (Ontop), or two or more words that do not form descriptive compound words (Petcarbob, Diediedie and Tablechair).
Descriptive compound words are allowed in first names and are encouraged in surnames (e.g. Treehugger, Giantslayer).
Descriptive compound words (each separate part of the word and the entire word) must otherwise adhere to all other naming rules.
Fantasy-oriented names which are easily recognized from popular existing media (e.g. Merlin, Gandalf, Drizzt).
Names where the combination of the first and last name forms a phrase or violate a previous rule (e.g. Crymea River, Bran Muffin, Story Thyme).
For all of the above, misspellings and alternative spellings (such as spelling it backwards) of the word or words are also unacceptable.
For all of the above, any foreign variations are also unacceptable. If a player petitions a name he or she feels is offensive in a foreign language, all rules set forth shall be applied.
Above all else, you may not choose character or guild name which, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Project 1999 Customer Service Staff, is deemed to be offensive or improper.

Was once told I couldn't use the surname Meatshield. The guides surname at the time was "Get your purple robes, we're going streaking" with the punctuation included.

Yay, hypocrisy.

Please start changing non-RP names, my immersion is constantly being ruined by people with stupid names like Windex, Reefermadness or Adolf.

I support a consistently enforced naming policy that conforms to classic guidelines.

This isn't WOW, on live my monk "Yourgunnadie" was changed to "Slax" which was actually a cooler name but it bummed me out big time.

Lets do it.

I have been asking various staff members for literally 9 months to change my monks last name to "Wu'Tang" and I get shot down every time. Messaged Moregan yesterday, says no with no explanation. Its a traditional martial arts name with ties to the Everquest universe, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the Rza, the Gza, and the Ghost Faced Killah.

THIS POST IS A LIE, MOREGANS SURNAME SKILLS ARE A LIE, THIS WHOLE SEVER IS CRUSHING MY DREAMS OF MONK STARDOM.

Uh, I don't know, I don't know. Um, it's a hard grape to grow, as you know. Right? It's uh, it's thin-skinned, temperamental, ripens early. It's, you know, it's not a survivor like Cabernet, which can just grow anywhere and uh, thrive even when it's neglected. No, Pinot needs constant care and attention. You know? And in fact it can only grow in these really specific, little, tucked away corners of the world. And, and only the most patient and nurturing of growers can do it, really. Only somebody who really takes the time to understand Pinot's potential can then coax it into its fullest expression. Then, I mean, oh its flavors, they're just the most haunting and brilliant and thrilling and subtle and... ancient on the planet.
