It really shouldn't cost anything. People expecting to be charged $5-10 to simply change their user ID is absurd... Since when did we accept having to pay for basic functionality? These things used to be free.

How would I go about verifying that the name that I want to change to isn't taken already by someone else? I noticed that you "have to" change your name if you choose the option.

Well, with the ways that names are set up in Bnet 2.0, there's lots of potential for abuse if name changes are easily allowed.

I wish they'd at least let us change how we spell it for free (like capitalize certain letters and stuff). Even xbox live allows you to do that.

You can have duplicates.

Say player A doesn't like Player B and has a chip on his shoulder, Player A could change his name to Player B and defame player B with his account then change back.

If you've noticed, people can have the same character code, but will have different names. What will occur if I have the same character code as someone else, but change my name to the same as them? Does my code change? i don't want to waste my change finding out. ><

I think your best bet then would be to search for the name(s) of interest that you want to change to here http://www.sc2ranks.com/ (change type to "Is Exactly") and from there you can see if anyone has the same name as well as their character code accompanied by it
