Reputation: 1 | | | Cross Account Char Transfer - Diff Name Hello, I recently inherited a shadow priest from a friend of mine and was wondering, could I transfer that shadow priest to my account, even though the last names are different on the accounts? I know you used to be able to do that, and I figured if Blizzard is incompetent enough not to be able to fix WoWarmory which they had working a month ago, then why would they notice this
No but seriously O.o
Do y'all think I would have any issues if I tried to transfer the priest to my account? | Donate to remove ads, get your "DONATOR title, and get access to the MMOwned community's elite Shoutbawx.

Hope this helped ^^ |

You can change your name only if you have been married or something like this. Without an document, that proves you name-change, there is no way to change you last name.
You can try to transfer the priest without a namechange, but i think, that you wouldn't have success. |

Reputation: 1 | | | It should work. I'll just call them and tell them I can send my drivers license as proof, and use my current one. They won't be able to say show us proof of the prior, I'll say I just started college or something and that I'm halfway across the nation. |

There's no reason why you and your parents' last names would differ. I do not think they will accept this. They might change the first name, but not the last name. |

Reputation: 1 | | | I don't see why not. Step parents. Mommy and Daddy got into a nasty divorce, Daddy wasn't fit for raising me but I still liked him better. I was forced to live with Mommy who remarried and changed my last name, too. I turn 18 and want the name of my father, I get it legally changed back. |  |
