Hello. I've recently changed my character name on RS3, I don't mind it and actually do like it, but at the time I wasn't completely sure if I actually wanted to keep it forever, perhaps even use the name on an alt, I was aware f early name changes with bonds so I figured if needed I could always change it back, however, when I tried this i've discovered that it is not allowing me to do so and it is stating that my previous name is not available.... I'm actually a bit furious about this considering your previous name is supposed to be reserved to your account until a specific date UNLESS you buy a bond to change your name early, which I have done and it is still claiming that my old name isn't available to me. It has only been roughly a week since i've changed it and when I try to add the name to my friends list it even says "you can't add yourself" so why is it that it isn't allowing me to change my old name back? PLEASE HELP.

Hi there
Pagan Witch


When you want to return to your reserved previous name, it has to be done from outside the game.
Trying inside the game will always generate an error message about the name not being available.
Click on 'My Account' at the top of this page and head into account management. :)
