Yes and No.
That topic has been discussed to death and back.
There is and was no need to reignite that specific discussion after it finally seemed to be laid to rest.

New people constantly come in. They can't be arsed to read every post and just post what they feel. That's just how it is. Like it or not, it's going to happen.

And we "just" sent a warning that this topic is a dangerous one in this thread which should be avoided.

I see an opportunity for extortion!!
I promise not to reignite it if the Dev promises to let me change the name Wellwood. Blegh!!
C'mooon! If we can choose the first name, choosing the last shouldn't be hard.
I assume. I know nothing about programming but the logic is sound. Cuz it's my logic.

The surname is heavily tied to the story which is why it can't be changed.

There is mention of the name Wellwood dozens of times in the story.
That name is both integral part of the story and in my opinion quite punny.
Well
Wood
=
Good/Nice
Dick
Even his default first name, Peter, is a word variation for a dick. Naming him Richard would continue the double entendre theme.

The official nicknames for Richard includes Dick, so that would have been obvious and would not "continue the double entendre" as much as you think. The usual struggle would be to NOT call a richard you just met dick.Even his default first name, Peter, is a word variation for a dick. Naming him Richard would continue the double entendre theme.
(Consider this an RL tip, superiors at work often are quite ... allergic to that nickname)
Both the mummy roommate and the succubus secretary would have called him that immediately, though. One does not care and the other wants his dick from the beginning.
The name itself is derived from germanic and translates basically to "strong in rule" though.
The thought process for naming a protagonist usually is a lot more intricate and thorough than many people think.
Not sure how the number of times a name is stated impacts anything. Everygame lets you pick a first name and then has that first name mentioned dozens of times. Why would it be any harder with a surname than a given?

Harder?
No.
Makes no sense in the story?
Yes.
For instance in the future MC could be visiting the family mausoleum where at the entrance there is a render proudly presenting "Wellwood" despite you renaming him to "Dick Fuckboi". Keep in mind for Olga he wants to basically visit a cemetery to prove her creator is dead.
There do exist AVN's that let you customize both first and last name but more often than not these are games where the names don't actually mean shit and don't even have a possible consequence.
Good Evening everyone, how often is the game updated?I looked that the last update was in July ! it will be a pity if such a project bends...

This looks like an alternate interpretation of the date: where we read yr/mo/day other areas/cultures read yr/day/mo (and other variations). I run into it on another forum and it can get really confusing when viewing dated material.
