Someone seriously took Grimmlocke? Pfffttt. I swear people just look around Beta for good names to steal.

hehe you mean a modification of Grimlock the very popular leader of the Dinobots? That Grimmlocke?

This was an earlier tweet saying that it was a visual bug if it showed your name as not saved.

Also currently name reservations are down :

Hey all,

Its safe to say things did not go as planned today and we understand that this sucks for those that have Pre-ordered and that have been excited for Name Reservations.  Our immediate action will be to take Name Reservation down.  For us, this is a number one priority to get this resolved.

Check back to our forums and social sites for more updates.  We are working to make this right.

I never watched Dinobots. Ah well.

I found Tecta (which is never taken) by looking through weird chemical and medication names. Actually a good source for random and sometimes cool sounding names. Tecta is actually a stomach acid medication apparently  :o

SW:TOR - Tecta (Dark) / ValGith (Light)
Diablo 3 - Alpharius #1269
Wildstar - Tecta
Lost Ark (NA East-Avesta) - Gith
WWZ - Gith_
FFXIV (NA-Cactaur) - Gith Redmayne

Yeah, it was more of an 80s child thing.
  I agree with you, I spend hours on Wikipedia when I need a new name.

It sounds like you guys loved the Wildstar mini-game today.
I hope the game is just as good.
The opinions expressed here are my own and I have my wife's permission to say so.

Gith

I am a child of the 80s, that was just not a show I watched. Only so many hours in the day :D

SW:TOR - Tecta (Dark) / ValGith (Light)
Diablo 3 - Alpharius #1269
Wildstar - Tecta
Lost Ark (NA East-Avesta) - Gith
WWZ - Gith_
FFXIV (NA-Cactaur) - Gith Redmayne

Miiko

I finally, at 9pm, got Miiko saved. ^^;

Tys

I'll miss Grimlock. I might try it again at launch and see if I get lucky. Noctus isn't so bad. A spin on the Latin - Nocturne - which fits a Mordesh character.

  Sorry, i was going by your profile. by that information you would be 3 years old in 1989  ;)
Seeing as the series only ran from 84-87 I assumed you would not have seen it.  My bad  :-[

Hurray miiko!

Also me grimlock was the catchphrase of the dinobots!
It's as iconic as you've got the touch song from the transformers movie ( animated and first )

I typically get my character names by plugging a characteristic into Google Translate and trying various languages until I get something I like the sound of.

Also use the method I posted on top of page 5 to see if your name is reserved , if you get numbers in the results then you are good .
Although the Devs tweeted that it's a server error , I'd double check to make sure .
Hopefully by now the bugs have been worked out and everyone is good
