surname -- family name on who and greet At creation you pick a first name and may skip the surname when yours is the only character with that first name.

How you play: 1. surname -- see your surname and whether it shows 2. surname on -- show surname on who and greet 3. surname off -- hide surname (first name only in public) 4. bond given -- James Bond order (default) 5. bond surname -- Bond, James order (desk / Crowley style) 6. namechange NewName -- at a sheriff's office desk, pay dollars to change the surname itself 7. namechange none -- drop your surname when your first name is unique (mononym) Celestial and Cosmic Origins (Angels, Gods, Reapers, Cosmic beings) do not use mortal surnames -- no sheriff nag on login. Mortals without a surname may silence the login reminder with config surname_alert off.
