Take your coupon to the Event Hall and speak to Mr. Newname. Select 'Change Character Name'.

Read the list of rules and if you're sure you want to change your name, click 'Continue'. For security purposes, you will be asked to enter your PIC. Enter the new name you'd like for your character and click 'Change'.

Your new name will be applied instantly after you log out and log back in to MapleStory—no need to wait for it to be processed during a maintenance. You can only change your character's name once per week. Be sure to give your new name some thought!
