    "Excuse me, Sir..."

    "Yes?" "What is it?" "Huh?" "Eh?" "Yeah?" "???" "Hmm?" "What?" "Not now" "(I Don't Speak English)" "Who, me?" "I'm assuming you're talking to one of the other Sirs. :S"

    I expect to see a lot of English players with really complicated Japanese names and Japanese players with really basic English names.

    My first character's name ever was Taeko. And then it was the pretentious latin one. And then I had to stop playing. xD

    It's funny 'cause the Latin one came out sounding like a pokémon name xD

    It will be really weird to have NPCs use your full name repeatedly (if that's the case). It'll be interesting to see how well this is implemented, I fear a lot of backlash. Even though, really, it isn't too big a deal.

    Late response to this, but it's Nico backwards, so it'll be like Okeen. But, of course, everyone's going to pronounce it Osin.

    Naiko. Just do it in Japanese?

    EDIT: It's also an anagram of Nokia. This is important, relevant information.
