Trait epithets are the way to go, for sure. The trick is also to make sure that he doesn't lose that epithet later to another trait, e.g. "the Kind". I don't know if that thread mentions it but this one does: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...1#post13169870

Also be wary of long names. The game can show only so many characters on scrolls so he might end up displayed as "Jon, the Lord Commander of t...".

How can I edit sequence of character names in the game?

[Gigantus]

Copy\import the names into a spreadsheet and do a data sort, then copy them back. Do it one section at a time.

It doesn't have any effect on the selection for the names of new characters, though.
