You should be able to just pick a name. Your friend code distinguishes you, so you can have the same name as someone else. Nintendo has stated that they will allow everyone to be named Mario if they want to be.

:( I want a headset... make it wireless :D

And the name.. yeah you can probably be named whatever you want and change it whenever. But you have a Wii code to be distinguished by.

You can only choose Bill, John, Tom, Mike or Mick. If your name isn't one of these, then you're screwed. Confirmed by the site:

Do you see room for 10 characters in that screenshot? it's four.
The more characters you have the smaller the font is. And if you actually look at the other screenshot;



Looks like the box you enter the name is has plenty of room for more characters. Why would they only allow you to make a 4 character name? That would just be dumb.

That isn't Online name selection.

If the stories are true, and that friend codes are connected via Mii's, then you pick a Mii to be you for online play, like Strikers.
