Has anything been stated on how uniqueness of names will be handled? Is it unique up to a single firstname? Or does it consider a possible surname to make it unique? There are six names I like to use on a regular basis and I was able to use all of them when I first started playing MMOs. Now though... I usually find most of them have already been selected if I don't get to choose my names early enough. But if a surname is considered in the naming convention, I can usually give the same surname to each of my toons and still use the firstnames I prefer.
Typing "Surnames" into the search function produces 2 results other than this thread:

I will go ahead and close this one down, please use the search function prior to creating a new thread to save forum bloat and split topics, it is important to keep all of the information as consolidated as possible for developers and fans alike to find as quickly and easily as possible. :)
