Pretty much title. I leave all player names off, so that I could only focus on the group I am playing with. In a recent patch, It was made so that you only see health bars of your party when you have player names off. I'm hoping that since Anet has had an increased presence on reddit lately, they'll take this into consideration.
Icons are used widely throughout Guild Wars 2 to graphically represent a wide variety of features.. Types []. Character or player icons display characteristics of players.; Floating icons may appear above the head of NPCs or objects to represent their function that in most cases, is the same icon on the map.
The display name, however, is some collection of gobbledegook that is totally unrelated. It's showing as 6D9EFE0B-2774-E2AA-AAD2-79B4662F1653.7065. Yup, not kidding. It's like it's been corrupted. I have three accounts (one is only a daily chest collector). On two of my accounts the Account Name matches the Display Name and I have NO API issues.
Do be aware: Changing a Display Name will engender several bugs related to in-game mail, Friend's list, Guild lists, etc.It's one of the consequences of having a Display Name changed, which is why it is not a service offered by choice.The CS Team doesn't actively look for names that have somehow slipped by the filter; someone reported the name either in-game or on the forums.

Guild Wars 2 Discussion. [Suggestion] Renaming Our Accounts/Display Names. I don't know about anyone else, but five years ago when I bought Guild Wars 2 I never had an official username I'd go by. But after all these years, I've found one that fits me and I'd love to have it as my Display Name. I know it would be hard for the devs to create
Two-Step Verification (2 Step Authentication) is easy to integrate with Guild Wars 2 by using the SAASPASS Authenticator (works with google services like gmail and dropbox etc.) with the time-based one-time password (TOTP) capabilities. Download the SAASPASS app and setup the SAASPASS Authenticator.
Better yet, make an option to hide the character name and only show the account name without the number (unless there is the probably rare instance where there are 2 accounts with the same name in the same guild online at the same time). Would be even less clutter imo, and sufficient.
A few months back, our guild decided to start advertising again for new members. While we've been fortunate to have some wonderful people join us, it's brought up a problem that we've not had to deal with in a long time.Our GW/GW2 account (which may have been created may years ago) may no longer
