Hello, I know the rule nowadays is that you have to wait 30 days upon character deletion for the name to be available, but my question is this:
If I use name change on the character name I want to clear instead of deleting the character, would the name be cleared instantly?
P.S. I recreated the thread here considering no one replied to the last one and I cannot bump it ^^
Would really appreciate a staff member address this.
Greetings
You want to rename an existing char and take that name later? I suppose it could work because the char is stored with the current name.
I did this experience: I could use the name of a renamed "nameless" char after deleting a level 1 char. I created this fresh char because I wanted to see if the name of the nameless char is still available after server clean. There are some tricks, and I suppose, your trick should work too.

I can confirm that if you have reserved a name and want to create/rename another character with this name, your method will work.
I did the same thing here:

It's the only way around the 30-day rule, and will cost you 20 points if you're gonna use the name on a main character though.
tldr: A rename instantly frees up the name, yes.
