Ok, I usually dont rant about stuff like this but I found this particular thing very annoying.

So, I tested out Season 2 and loved it. I decided that to get the best experience from it I should roll another character, to start fresh. So there I was in character creation building my Bajoran. I was very pleased with myself (as he looked much more like myself than my Human main) and he had an awesome uniform.

So I moved on to the last screen to name my ship and character. I typed in my ship name, the Andromeda. Then went to type in my character name, a clever variation of my own name I got from the "Alien Names Thread" : Na Alek. A good Bajoran name, don't you think?

But to my surprise, the last name field for Bajorans has to be a minimum of three characters. All I could think was, "Well this is embarrassing..." There have countless Bajorans with surnames of only two characters. Ro Laren being the main example.

So please fix it Daniel! Shouldn't be too hard to squeeze in for the big Season 2 patch, right? :o

    it might help if you put what this thread is about in the title.

    "C'mon Stahl" isnt a good way to start a conversation about character names :)

    I always thought there should be no minimum character limit on ship/character names. We're dealing with lots of different languages in STO.

    I think you should have "Bajoran Names Devs" as the thread title instead of "C'mon Stahl".

    Bad attention is better than no attention I think.

    If a conversation started like that with my name, I'm pretty sure I'd be biased against any suggestions from the beginning...

    Hmm, thread title doesnt change when edited. Oh well, can we get a dev response for this? I imagine it would be an easy fix. (Don't hold me to that though, I dont code)

    I don’t think the Devs will see this because of the title I would be will to bet that when they see the name their going to assume its anther whiny thread about something that has already been said or addressed and not waste there time on it. Best thing to do would be to start over with a different name. BTW great Bajoran name

    Credit for the name goes to Exonoma and his alien names thread. I like it too. If you're looking for one yourself I would get in touch with him. ;)
