It's so obvious - we need to be able to give our shooting stars nicknames!
It's so obvious in fact, that I'm a little surprised not to find anything about it anywhere. So if I missed it, you'll just have to forgive me...
I imagine a very simple solution where they simply add a line for the players nick just underneath the players name on his profile. That would certainly spice up the game recaps.
Imagine your team in the BBB Finals, your starplayer on his way to a quadruple double career game and thus bringing you the trophy... But who's gonna remember a name like Kåre Øverli? Kåre "Da Brick" Øverli, now that's easier, and Da Brick doesn't contain any of those foreign letters either. Can you see the headlines... "Da Brick is no brick!" (Or something equally stupid.)
Sure, there'll be 1200000 MJ's and Magics out there, so even the more important then to come up with a good and creative name.
I really don't see how this can be a bad idea... Anyone?

You're clearly not a GM, then, who would have to deal with the offensive nicknames that would be created.
Anyway, I still think it's a good idea if opened up
in a very limited way
. In fact, it has been suggested multiple times before. I know I suggested it many months ago (I'll never find the post... I remember demanding a free nickname for suggesting it), and there seemed to be official optimism at that time that it would happen at some point.
