"They exist because they didn't pay attention.

There are also people who have created character with names like JO
JO JO JO JO JO JO JO.

Should we make sure that we cater to them, too?"

I was unaware that two part names were banned as well? It's been a 
while since I made a character but I don't think it said "no spaces". 
Names like JO JO JO etc etc  are indeed silly, but what about the 
perfectly legitimate two part names that are just plain easier to NOT 
type when you've got 10 minutes? It's not only an IC thing, having a 
system that forces you to type full names -as well as- 
full/fancy/different for every realm titles under every circumstance 
would be a pain OOC.

I'm not saying we should "cater" to them, but exactly how do you plan 
on making them work with the proposed system? Have everyone who maybe 
wasn't paying that much attention when they first started delete their 
characters? Make it so no one has a name that's mildly complicated? 
Officially ban the shortening of names for simplicity or affection?
