Nicknames are more than enough imo. Imagine a team with 5 LeBron James or Michael Jordan, or even worse, 10 same names in the same league..

Hattrick makes this doable very easily, as each manager can change the name of the players with the database of names in their respective countries with an alternative payment (credits, which are bought or won). This is why I thought it would be something interesting to do even here, of course by not risking to go into court :D.

I took this initiative because for example, I drafted a player with a last name that has nothing to with Albania. Unless you can argue that his father is from South America :).

I think a free choice of names is a bad idea, as we don't want endless Michael Jordans etc in the game.

But perhaps for draftees only the game could generate a couple of random alternatives which the manager could then pick from, much like being able to change his appearance. That way we keep the random element but there's still an option to get rid of 'bad' names.
