Posted March 12, 2016 The ability to set a last name or surname on your in game characters in the chat bar type /surname ( then your name here ) a minimum 3 characters letters a maximum 10-15 character letters Premium Players only ( stays displayed when your loose your premium ) The Ability to choose to display or not display in the / titles section No resets or changes ( maybe limited to one change ? in game marriages etc? ) Repeatable surname names accepted ( family name for each Toon etc ) sometimes alliances require everyone to have the same last name. etc I have seen this in a few MMO's its quite interesting to see what names people come up with for there surnames / last names No illegal character letters allowed such as numbers or !&$%^@ etc.. like to get this added ! 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 12, 2016 Great idea! Did you write this up after confusing me with Revelationx yesterday? xD 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 12, 2016 I like the idea - could pull the alts into one "family" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 12, 2016 Make it so that a character can only take an already "occupied" last name if it is allowed by someone who has it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 12, 2016 Is this just something you pulled out of the air, or did you get this idea from Black Desert Online? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 12, 2016 slingshot I'm a old everquest 1 & 2 player surnames where allowed at a certain level just remembered it lol thought Wurm could integrate it as well. Many games have it why not Wurm? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 12, 2016 As long as it's an option and not required I'm okay with it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 12, 2016 This is actually very common in games with a large playerbase, and that because lots of name are already taken. In Wurm it should serve another purpose. Why not, +1. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2016 +1 so long as it can move your player name to your Surname and give your player a new first name(One time only for exisiting account if this ever came in). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Hrm... I think 15 would be too limiting, especially given many examples in RL. I wonder if borrowing from Black Desert Online's setup where the account characters share the same family name would be helpful, especially since Wurm doesn't really have much in the way of account management.

Posted March 16, 2016 This would be amazing on Epic. Many of the members of MR Elite (for example) could share the same surname. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many games have it why not Wurm? One of the best things about EQ2 - and it's not the only game either. It would be a great way to personalize WO. I'd prefer to see it enabled only for WO premium players. We do need some perks besides having to pay for premium and deed upkeep to set us apart from WU. Yes, I love the stable servers and our gamer staff but I'd really love being Magykal Jenkins again. ;-) Great idea, Xxx! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is immediately what came to mind as well but maybe that is because of our playing BDO? Anyway, I don't see much of a benefit for adding this concept into Wurm, so I am not much concerned about it either way but it might have some attraction to others. =Ayes= Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 19, 2016 There could be some additional lines of info given when examining a player; currently we can see kingdom and settlement identity, so family/clan origin would refine the definition. 'He appears to have [kingdom] blood.' 'He bears the mark of a [role] of [settlement].' 'He displays the crest of [surname].' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
