Currently the name change rules are as follows
Quote
You can change your forum account name for a Forum Gold fee.
Limits:
The name you choose must be between 3 and 32 characters.
The name you choose cannot contain any special characters, ONLY letters and numbers.
The name you choose must not already be taken. Old user accounts will NOT be deleted under any circumstances.
Prices:
250fg for a upper/lower case change of any of the letters in your name. No addition or removal of any letters.
500fg for a minor name change. Ie, removing a couple letters (such as a clan tag). **Note, if you add any letters, this is considered a full name change. 1500fg for a complete name change. Ie, changing your name to something completely different from what it is today.
Notes on name changes:
The only thing that changes on your account is the name. Your user id, post count, join date, gold, etc will all remain exactly the same.
Use the Change Account Name tool located within your settings, or by clicking this link:

I draw your attention to the
red. It states that you can remove a couple of letters for the price of 500fg, it
does not state
where those letters need to be or that they have to be a clan tag, that is just an example given of a change that is possible.
I tried removing 3 letters from my name and it gives me a price of 1500, I tried 2 letters and it still gives me a 1500 price. So the name change system isn't set properly or the rules need to be updated so they clearly say what can and can't be done. At the moment my request is within the rules yet the system isn't recognizing this.
So I propose the system be changed/updated to abide by the rules stated in the Name Change FAQ
