How to change my name if i used one of a company I did not know

my name in game is pizzaypapas that means pizza and potatoes but i just noticed a restaurant is named like that and i dont want any problem can I change my name someway ?

You could self report your name. At least it works in retail. I am making an assumption it works Classic as well.

If it does not then i apologize for bad information. That said unless you
are an RP realm I would not worry too much about it.

The only way to possibly do it in Classic is to put in a ticket and see if a GM feels your name would qualify for a change. That said, it looks like you’re on a PVP server where your name may not actually break any rules so it might not qualify for a change.

Unfortunately, paid name changes are not currently being offered on Classic.

You’ll likely be fine, Pizza. You may run into trouble on an RP realm, but a non-RP realm doesn’t usually have an issue.

For any trademark/copywrite issues, the company would have to protest its use and contact us through legal. We do have such names on file, but that one isn’t part of that list.

I once had regrets about my name, but I like it more when I realized how well it went with some of the titles like Professor Paants, or Paants of Ironforge.

I once had a toon named HowdyDroody that I kept around for years just to remind myself how stupid I could be,
