A character with that name already exists

So...after these Aggramar crashes, when I try to log on to the toon that I got kicked off the server while playing, I get the message that a character with that name already exists and kicked back to the character selection screen.

Is this normal? How long will it take before I can log on to that character? Am I personally responsible for Aggramars woes?

I'd hate to think its my fault. I'd feel bad. That would be horrible.

Heya Morley,
Q u o t e:
Sometimes when you get disconnected, it doesn't register on the server's end right away.

Usually it goes away within a few minutes.
▲▲Character usually stays on 2 minutes after you log out or get disconnected. If you try to log on right away, it will say that, if your character is still trying to log out.
