Hey All,

I submitted an email inquiry but was hoping if maybe someone on forums would be able to assist me.

I currently hold 2 accounts and one of them I used back in college and whilst on a shared PC. For that account I had used my nickname, as you would appreciate.

My question now is, am I able to change that account name (which is obviously a nickname) to my real name?

I wish to do this only because I can no longer 2 accounts...barely 1 so the wife says! And if the answer is no I will have to cancel that one.

Since I love my toons on both accounts...I cant live without either and thus will be forced to close both accounts altogether and *gasp* maybe go to LOTRO or back to EQ2.

Appreciate it :)
