Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe I read from an Anet blog post that all GW1 characters reservations only last 1 day after the official launch, then they are up for grabs. Just something to keep in mind.

you are correct - old GW1 names will expire soon

http://www.arena.net/blog/reserve-your-guild-wars-character-name-for-guild-wars-2-by-july-31

However, as we mentioned in a previous blog post, your Guild Wars character names will not be reserved indefinitely.

You must create a Guild Wars 2 character with the same name as your Guild Wars character during the Headstart Access period or on launch day.

Shortly after launch, we’ll free up all the unclaimed names for new Guild Wars 2 players to use.

Well as I said above It's only 3 names if I do make more my imaginantion can come up with alot more and not be things like puffybunnyboy or I Slay you but real fantasy type names my sig is my main's name.

I am pretty bad with alts in MMOs, so I give it a week before all my slots are filled.

1. Human Thief

2. Charr Engineer

3. Sylvari Elementalist

4. Asura Mesmer

5. Norn Guardian

I have ruled out Warrior and Necro, neither interest me. May swap one out for a Ranger at a much later time, I am not in a hurry to play one though. Thief will be my first, followed shortly by Engineer. Never play the thief in most games but I enjoyed it in the last beta.

1. Human Thief
2. Sylvari Mesmer
3. Norn Guardian
4. Charr Warrior
5. Asura Engineer

Same here.  I Didn't play GW1 so couldn't save them through those means.

ill for dem names.

Dear gamers.  Everyone knows you do this.  Other players need the names.  So on Nov. 1, we did a sweep of the character dbase and deleted every L1 toon created on the 25th.  Neener.

This has been another episode of "EvilGMs screwing wit da playaz".  Any resemblance to actual players, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

Well hopefully no one takes your name. Question for you though. You know how you have a first and last name...is it possible to say go into options and hide your last name? I really want to have a first and last but only if it allows me the option of hiding the last when I want.

all of them to claim my names

Oh and for me I'll probably just buy the extra slots. Think about the bag slots and what not..prob those as well or was it bank slots. Basically I'll prob purchase all essential things so I can get that out of the way. Also I don't really have any names I'll just make some up. Of course it takes me a while per character but I think today after work I'll sit down and make 8 names that no one could possibly come up with. I'll fill them up righ away though...

Perhaps something like"

Sylvari necro

Human Ele

Norn Ranger: there is a twist to this though. I want the starter pets that each race has, so as long as I can get all the pets then yes a Norn Ranger...if not Sylvari ranger..or Asura lol.

Asura Engi- wonder what the little dude would look like with a backpack on him

Char- something or other. Depends on where I put the Asura.

Norn- female mesmer or Asura mesmer

Sylvari-perhaps Warrior im not sure. I'll have to look up this one. But it would probably be a Norn Warrior.

Human- Guardian. Think the Asura is too small. But who knows I think I'll look at the armors again and go from there. Can't wait until work is over today. Lol this is what I'll be doing till 10 at night.
