Hi,
So odly enough my display name has been changed from “Lucifer.6849” to “Ice Furl.4982”. I just noticed the changed a few minuites ago while queing for a tournament. My old display name still shows up on my guild roaster but the new one is both on my friend list UI and here on the forums. I did not ask for my display name to be changed and i did not choose this new one, I even had to look up “Furl” in a dictionary to know if it was a real word (which it is).

Edit: I originally posted this thread in bugs but it got moved here where I saw this thread https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/Display-name-changed-1 , guess the same thing happend to me.

Lucifer is disallowed, as is Satan, Buddha, and Jesus. Clearly disallowed in the Naming Policy. The name — because it was a display name — was changed by a customer support agent. (We have not tool to allow a player to change a display name, even if it is censored.)

I’m sorry if you are unhappy, but I happen to think your new name is much more creative and cool than your old one. If you would like more information, please see this thread.
