[Devin]

Why if I may ask is it so important to change a forum name? its nothing serious, just a name which people can recognise you by.
So whats the need to change it?

That's why its disabled and because people would use inappropriate display names, When people get some maturity with this thing called "name change" then I will support

Why not creating a censored name list? Like the censored word one (not sure if it is possible)
Although I have asked webmasters alot in the past month, I do definitly support this.
If ARPD website has it, why not Main website also?

Initially we disallowed it, as giving the permission opened up some other possible edits that could lead to problems. We will check exactly what the setting opens up in the current version, and if there is no further problem we can allow it.

[Nathan]

I don't see why not. But it doesn't affect me.

[(tr)Ollie]

I would like this as I could change my name back to its good old self whenever I get mistreated by someone on the forum administration team.

Don't allow it T.T.

There's no shortage of forum administrators now is there...
The risk of allowing would be much more stress maybe.
