This one is a little complicated to explain.

A person has 2 accounts in non pvp.  Gardner and Gardnerr let's say. 
Gardner is offline, Gardnerr is online.  Gardnerr requests Gardner be deleted or renamed, and Gardnerr be renamed to Gardner. 

I do the command to rename Gardner while Gardner is offline and it reports his name was changed. 
I try to rename Gardnerr and it says Gardner is already in use. 
I log Gardner on and his name has not been changed.
I change it again.  It reports name changed and I verify name has been changed.  Log Gardner (renamed) off.
I try to rename Gardnerr to Gardner and it says Gardner is already in use.
I rename Gardnerr to abcdefg then rename abcdefg to Gardner and it works.

Edit:
It should be noted that Gardner (in this example) was a rolled character and had to be recreated when he was logged on. 

sounds ur cheatin and im the victim once again...

name changed should not be allowed period. if you want to change your name reroll, pvp pr non-pvp

In this case it would not have worked and you would have rerolled for nothing.
