Is there anyway to get your online character name changed?

The game was set up for me, and they chose the name for me.

We are currently not allowing name changes at this point in time. We would like to caution everyone to choose their name carefully.

Wish this was a warning ingame. Made a temp name just to get on. I wouldnt mind an account wipe as a means of name changing.

this was not made clear at all. I'd be down for an account wipe as well.

You woud think that setting a permanent online handle would be made a lot more clear during creation. Holding off on playing until this is resolved

It's already resolved. When you logged into the game it asked what you wanted to use for your character name. You answered "Mike", and they gave you the name you requested.

And holding off playing a game with no subscription fee that you already bought? Do you mind if I ask why?

Names are not unique.
You can choose any name you wish and are randomly assigned a numerical identifier to differentiate you from the others who chose the same name.

For example, you are Deag#547 =)

Did you not read the license agreement?

What you are talking about is not allowed.

Battle.net accounts are not allowed to be shared by brothers.

If you're talking about you each having a Battle.net account, then just log in with yours when you want to play, and log in with his when he wants to play.
