I picked up ED on steam years ago and I was and am totally fine with it having automatically ported my username from there. I am NAKEDnick everywhere and I'm happy having that as my callsign. That said, I have gotten more into the roleplay aspect as of late and I'd really like to have a way of showing up as my character's name as opposed to my gaming handle.
As far as I'm aware, there are currently two ways to accomplish a name change. Either you delete your character and start over, or you open a support ticket and make a case with FDev for a one-time name change. What I'm proposing is to have the ability to set a display name other than your direct account name. In my case, I would still be CMDR NAKEDnick officially, but I could appear to those in an RP session as my chosen character name.
