Suggestion: force player to name new characters

I recently created a new party of players (three rogues - daggers, bows, and throwing - and one mage, crazy huh?) and played for three or four hours before realizing I didn't give them unique names, so they are all names "New Prisoner" which really sucks! I don't want to replay the first three levels, so either I'll just live with it or I'll see if that save editor thing can change the names.

But I suggest that for the next patch or the next game that in the character creation screen you might simply make it impossible to continue until you type in a name for the character.

If this is an old idea, sorry!

Some people just cannot be bothered to change the characters name, hence why they are called New Prisoner. Personally I think a popup saying are you sure you don't want to change the characters names would be better.
