Is it possible to rename the WoW1 account to a name of our choosing?
If there is no way to do it ourselves, can we call billing to do it?

Starter accounts are automatically given names like WoW1, WOW2 etc.

It would be a nice idea if we were given the chance to rename them when we upgrade them to a retail account. Or when they are first created would be even better.

No, Kimy, I'm afraid not.

This was implemented for accounts made after Battle.net went in - there is no way to rename them. Battle.net itself is now the control, and THAT can be easily changed by changing your email address....something that was never possible under the old system.
