Name Change in GR?

I'm sure this has been answered somewhere, but does anyone know if we'll be able to change our names when we cross over? I mean, it would be pretty silly the have the name Sentinal of Justice or Light of Hope, when your robbing banks and kidnapping people.

Most likely you will have to pay for a name change. I cannot see them automatically offering a name change when you change sides (it would open the door to people just changing side to change their name).

Pretty much what this guy says.

While it is troublesome to see Bob Destroyer of Worlds saving kidnapped children it does make getting a name change as easy as switching sides.

That said I would like to see at lest a one time option the first time we switch sides if possible.

And besides, not everyone would need a name change upon switching. Many of my characters, for example: Sally Lee Brown (Mastermind), Anscillect (Defender), Sonya Childer (Tanker), Ookami Ezo (Stalker), Polished Diamond (Blaster), Rea C. Tive (Corruptor), SOSOS (Controller).

Don't forget to factor in irony ("Sentinal of Light" can be a villain, normally associated with darkness; "Aged Justice" may bring the 'justice' of a forgotten age) or subterfuge (see: Evil Overlord List #29: I will dress in bright and cheery colors, and so throw my enemies into confusion.). There's also the fact that just because of a face heel turn, doesn't mean people stop referring to the character by the same name. Spider-man is still Spider-man if he starts robbing banks.
