    Is there any way to change my name in BF2 short of creating a new account? This is annoying the ****e out of me.

    just change your name before your stats get any higher and you feel stuck with it. Thats what i got my friends to do so we could all be one of the same clan.

    it tells you the command for it. but i couldnt get this working for me.

    localProfile.setName [name] - Shows/Sets the name for your current account

    Think that might just be for a offline account, aka "Local Profile"

    I had been told you could do it through gamespy arcade , but I haven't tried , might be worth looking into .

    You can't change your nick ingame. Everywhere else yes but not where it matters.

    I don't think that this is coming in the next patch either.

    That's really REALLY stupid. :(
    What happens when people join clans and stuff? Just say goodbye to your hard earned stats and start over? **** that.

    As kdjac said, I think its to be sorted in a patch.
