But he'd still keep his skills and his age - most importantly.

True, but there are other things to a character and I think if Tom or
one of the GMs can do the favour, it would be great, since now it
isn't only a matter of "lets take the silly names away" but is a
matter of gameplay and joining a world. Simon asked nicely and
shouldn't be scolded for it. :) It isn't like he is trying to go
against the spirit of the island, he is asking for a little help to do
it. :)
