Did they ever change your name? I'm considering doing this and I'd like to know if other people had any success, thank you for your reply if you choose to make one

I changed mine, just cleared my saved game and it asked me to input a new name.

If a name change was a thing for like 5-10 Bucks, i would be really happy with it.

Something to take into account if your an explorer and change your name, any discoveries you made with your previous CMDR name will not be updated to your new one. They will remain saying first discovered by your old CMDR.

Odds are the name changes were 'involuntary' because he kept picking innapropriate names and other players were reporting him. Back in the day (read in old-man voice) you submitted your name through the support site for approval (nothing offencive, nothing infringing intelectual property or licenses, nothing with titles or ranks, and nothing already duplicated in the NPC, backer, or lore lists). Ah well.
