			 Does anyone know for sure what the maximum length for a /surname is? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		Thanks in advance.  | ||

			 There might be a limit when you manually enter it with /surname (maybe 14, 16 characters?), but a GM can definitely extend that a little bit

			 According to this thread it was 18 on live in 2006. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		But I cannot vouch for its correctness or if it applies to classic or P99.  | ||

			 Eighteen characters is the maximum length. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		When you use the command "/surname XYZ" a verification window pops up with YES/No buttons showing you what the surname will look like after truncation if needed. I didn't know that before. So I did some testing without setting my surname. Thanks guys for your input.  | ||

			 Once had a bard named Gonorrhea. GMs changed it to Renameme. I petitioned for it to be changed, nothing happened and next time I logged back in his name was "Renameme Petitionthenameyouwant". I left it like that for 10 levels cause I liked it till I sold the char on forums and never saw him again. Guessing the new owner had it changed.
