Thoughts on the chance that we could have the option to loose an enforced surname? Over recent days/months/years on a whois, people tend to opt for "." as a surname when from a RP perspective, perhaps especially if your a troll, surnames are not entirely fitting? Having a surname tends to imply that you have the intelligence to remember it, have the background/clan to support it (e.g. dwarf) of the desire to invent one as you start out on your quests...

Surnames?? There's no surname command!!! I'm sure you're just confusing "titles". Don't have aor want a title? Too stupid to think of or remember one? Use a period, a full stop, the little dot at the end of this sentence.
