So I got my names set on the PVE server Pagle, Alliance:
RevrendChris - my main, a male Gnome Mage
Reverend - my alt, a male Human Paladin
Sells - my bank alt, a female Human Warrior
I didn't get the name I wanted: Chris but that is OK because I got some good ones for me.
So, now who is on Pagle with me & What Where & Who are you?
I got the three character names I wanted. There's two on one server and one on another since my friend group is still deciding on where they're playing.
Nala - Tauren Druid - Grobbulus
Atlyk - Tauren 'Undecided' - Grobbulus
Aqpuu - Tauren Druid - Herod
I got my friend to grab these names for me since I of course had to be at work when name reservation went live.
Also, can you guess what my favourite race in the game is?
I got three names on Grobbulus:
Sommeil - Troll Rogue
Meatbones - Undead Undecided
Meatlumps - Troll Shaman
Happy with what I got, but really now I just want to get into the game!
Got my three names too on Hydraxian Waterlords:
Fendor - main Tauren Shaman
Ildebrando - dwarf Hunter
Osandiron - dwarf priest, co-founder of the Argussian Church
I basically made my 3 possible characters, and I'm still super uncommitted.
Mittens - Nelf Druid
Gensei - Troll Shaman
Mythie - Human Warlock
All on Pagle. Yes, I know, PvE realm. I've played PvP servers my whole wow life but I just don't have the time to get ganked these days. And I ended up abandoning playing a shaman. I'm sure I'd really like leveling but wasn't sure how I felt about the life at level 60.
I reserved the only name I cared about: Spaghetti the Dwarf Hunter on Mankrik. His servile pet horde will all be named Meatball.
My actual Main, a rogue, I am not at all concerned about getting her name. But Spaghetti was a real coup.
It's in my signature! :D
On Atiesh, I am:
Blackmonarch - my prot warrior and "long-term main"
Blackweave - my warlock and "short-term main" (for making bags and farming gold for Monarch)
Foodbank - my cooking reagent bank alt. I will have other bank alts but this was the most "in-demand" name
Fairbanks server:
Pirate - warrior
Predator - hunter (imagine a shadowmeleded T3 hunt)
Doomsday - undecided
Police - undecided
Vampire - undecided
Have a few others too. Activated 3 accounts for reserves. May sell a few later on. Not sure yet. Mostly just uncreative OG names that Ebay well and are generally well received/remembered by others.
Pirate
Pirate and Vampire are quite good. Well played.
I don't have too much concern about securing popular or valuable names. I just reserved the names valuable to me.

Thats the way to do it. I guess im taking a bit of a risk but hoping that my actual handles, which are far easier to get, will still be available. Either way it was a blast to do the countdown with a bunch of people on discord and then all swarm the servers trying to get our names.

Oh for sure, part of me considered going for short/memorable names - but a couple of my names were more mainstream, so I thought it probably more important to just secure them.
I have some other obscure ones that I will secure at launch, but for now I got 6 that I wanted to lock in.
Changes - Human Mage on either Shazzrath or Golemagg. Main, reserved names on both servers.
The plan is to level a Druid or Paladin as an alt after the mage. Haven't reserved a name I'm happy with yet. Disco was taken quickly, so I might just grab my old screenname.
