Why even monetize name's? just leave them as they are and ban the filthy cheaters who are selling IGN's for gold.

Imagine you haven't played this game for 2 years because you've been very busy with your life or you just don't want to play the game for the time being.
And when you return, all your names you've had just disappeared, and you end up being stuck with randomly generated names? how will you feel?
Please be honest, because this idea of punishing people for being in-active as they wish, is utter crazyness. And it might ruin the experience.

These are just name's they mean nothing. Are specific name's on a video game the thing that will give you a confidence boost? Ego boost?
If so, i've got very bad new's for you.
If you guy's are trying to encourage Monetization for Name's! That the player's should have freedom choosing. Then you are trying to ruin this game and make it undesirable.
It will be the beginning of the end. You guy's are trying to encourage, us being milked for mere name's.
Imagine the amount of players leaving because of this. Imagine the insane backlash. Becareful what you wish for, it will bite back one day.

PS: You say a "Good idea"? This is a horrible and shameless idea! Seriously! There are consequences for these types of practices. @Allset
EDIT: With all respect, I'm sorry, if this sounds very harsh. But this is the truth. Please try to understand.
