about your question : i rename them to change the stupid names they often get, like a 17th duplicate of 'Lobimag' for example, or names which dont fit with the theme, like 'Denise' for a Marignon mage (Denise is a rather deprecated female name in France).
Yeah, so you can recall your mage "Ginette" instead !

Really? Bummer. I guess some stuff got lost in the shuffle.

No joke.

The name change in Dom I was not intended either.

It might be abused as you can rename commanders to confuse MP enemies.

My brother has suggested a solution to the naming business: adding some kind of name tag to a commander that is displayed for you only. This way you can rename your commanders without bothering other players with stupid or offensive names.

This will probably not be in the release Version, but perhaps in an early patch.
