You should read the Namerules, based upon this knowleadge you should be able to think of a good name.

But you already requested an account for a pre-created character of you, if you follwed the instructions given to you correctly.
So you are not able to change the name for your requested Character.

No, it's not a good name, it would not pass. If you get rid of Baron, and make a real firt name, it might get through.

No, we don't need. But in my opinion it sounds a bit better.
But thats your decision.

FelBLADE - sounds NOT like a name.
"the Dark" - not accepted, would be a title thing.

Please, READ the name rules.
That means :
NO titles in first and last names !
NO things in it that sound "cool" - blade, and other things, are no real names. Using such names leads to a bad atmosphere.

Use a name that sounds like a NAME. In illarion, names are given the children by their parents (like here). So, give your character a name that IS a name people would give their child.

Of course, there are different races. Orcs also use names, use an orcish sounding one : Bugburz for example could be a good name for an orc, but would make a very bad name for a human, halfling or elf !

And again the hint : please READ the name rules before asking questions here. Don't just look them over. Try to understand them.

you are a funny person...

why don't you want to name your character "Elvis Presley" and start a musician's career in Illarion, hm?



Edit: why I was asking you this ridiculous question?
Attila is a historical person and if you read the NAME RULES...
you would know why Attila is not a "good" name...

Look at names of other people in the game for guidance. Look at Zerbus, look at Moathia, look at Paul Laffing (me), look at Salad... uhm, I meant Salathe, and you can begin to get a picture of names appropriate for this game and each race.
