I recently completed a server transfer followed by a faction change. Upon completion of both processes, I switched to the realm and utilized the in-game faction change for the character. During this process, I also switched the character's name to the name I desired, assuming this would work as expected. However, upon completion of the faction change and after attempting to log into the game I was informed that my character was flagged for renaming (presumably leftover from the server transfer). Obviously, since I had already named my character the desired name, it won't let me choose this name again.
This post serves two purposes: to inform you of this bug, and to request that the flag for renaming be removed from my character so I may have my desired name (which I've already selected). The character in question is currently named Lunor, on the realm Stormrage.
TL;DR - Renaming using a faction change is not removing the flag for a character to be renamed that results from a server transfer, potentially forcing people into names they do not want.
Thanks!
