1.0 - Introduction
Hello everyone and welcome here. In this guide I will try to explain you how to choose a nice name and avoid you to spend millions for a name change. But ofcourse, you are still going to choose the name and not me.

2.0 - What names to choose
Here I will list a list of sorts of names that are recommed to use, ofcourse there are many more nice names, but it's just to give you an idea!
Simple names: Use names like Zombie, Undead, Inferno, Revengefull (Try to avoid names like Telephone, Car and House)
Combination names: Same as above, InfernoZombie sounds good but does CarZombie?
Country names: Use anything, your name, an object or whatever and add your country initials, you'll have to try this one for yourself, not everything sounds nice with this.
Translated names: Try to find a translator, and translate something into a nice languange. This might take a bit untill you find something nice but its worth it. Even something stupid in English, can sound like a charm in another languange!

3.0 - Do's and Don'ts- If you want to look proffesional, type first character of your name with caps.
- You found a name, but it's already taken? Try add some characters (like Lothar -> Lotharias)
- Don't go add numbers to your 'original' name if the one without is already taken, try find something new unless you really want numbers after your name.
- Add your job on your own risk, but don't go cry when you got the name MightyHermit and end up as a CJB.
- Be creative, we don't need thousands of Gandalfs, Aragorns or Legolas'!
- Do not, and I repeat, not, use racist or offensive names. These will ruin your reputation and will only make people flame you.
- Don't use 1337 speak, if you seriously thing N33B10wNu looks that good, you should stop reading this guide.
- Don't use breezah (names like InFeRNOzOmBie, it only makes it confuzing for people that are wanting to invite you in their party.
- Do not make your character' names the same as your username/login (Thanks to Itami)
