Switching Character Names

I am thinking about changing names between 2 of my characters. I am really starting to play my old vanilla character a lot, and am having a blast. My BC/WotLK main is fizzling out, and I am really only logging on with him for the JC daily. I went to do the paid name change, and noticed that if I change a name, it will be locked for 90 days. Would this completely lock the name all together, or would it be locked to the same account?

The name will be unavailable for use for all characters for a full 90 days, Suomy. After 90 days have passed, the first person to claim the name by creating a character or renaming a preexisting character will obtain the name.
