i always regret character names after i make them. not so much the campaigns though.
the latest was my monk that i had for almost 2 years and didnt really pay attention to the spelling of his name and just a couple weeks ago realized i spelled pharaoh wrong. so i deleted him.
on the plus side i got 27 of the 75 ecto back from his gloves.

I had a female friend of mine create a character. I stopped talking to her for a year after we broke up, and I regretted it then. We're reconciled now and I don't care anymore.

Campaigns: I only play Factions.

Not nearly as useless as this attempt at flaming.

Campaigns sometimes due to the looks on my character or having to buy some skills I might have learned through quests in other campaigns. Names too, obviously.

Names, yes. Appearances, yes. Chapters, no.

I have characters with obsidian armor that I don't even play now because their names and appearances. Instead, I made new ones with better names and looksets.

I still keep my original characters for hopes that one day (perhaps years from now) Anet allows us to change looks and/or names.

I created my monk back when the price for making a 55 monk had gone down and it was still popular. "Heal N Fifty Fiver" is his name. Now that 55 monks are basically dead, except for the few people that don't understand that it doesn't work well anymore, I hate that his name is such. I don't want to recreate him either because all the time I've spent on him is wasted. And I refuse to play him because of his name for some reason. It repels me as if it and I were positively charged magnets.

Campaign... nah.
But physical settings... yes; on Heal N as well.

EDIT:
I've come to conclusion that if you want to hide your character's face settings... Make them wear a Dread Mask or a Mask of Mo Zing.

Na, not really. Some of the silliest names I have were made with friends.

I have a necro named Invite Real Monks. The only thing I regret about her is that the rit who bore the first half of a pair-name, Say No To Alesia, has long since been deleted. (And the joke isn't as funny any more.)

Character names, sorta but not that much. Since I re-made my rit and ranger, it's all good.

Campaign: I really wish I made my ele in nf >< NF chars just look so much more detailed and better. But I'm not remaking her just to have a prettier face :P. Thank gawd shes my only proph char, asides from my war.

Never for campaigns, and my names are all OK, but I really wish I had made my monk and warrior both female.

When I bought proph, I decided to keep it equal... I made male Warrior and Monk and female ele and necro. Man, I really hate the male avatars in this game! At least I made every character since female

for the most part, no to both, however; I did find a typo in one of my mules names.

for the characters I usually play the names have been agonized over to come up with (though I really do wish I could have 2 letters in a roll capitalized without a space) so I am happy with them; chapters however, hm yeah there are a few I wish had started in other places, but it really doesnt matter as I usually then made a mule in the chapter that I had wanted another character in---if I then REALLY wanted that one, the mule got screen time.

name yes my monk and a few of my now mules who are my oldest toons. i don't delete for the pet mini pets, but i would change my monks name and hair in a heart beat. as for campaign not really i do think the faces and hair styles are much better in night fall then in any of the other mainly because it seems like the put some effort into them.

Names I do and don't regret at the same time, because although I don't like the sounds of Aminta Nitya, it has a meaning behind it that just happened to wind up being totally convenient for GW2. Aminta= Defender/Protector Nitya= Always/Eternal. However, the name sounds lame and uncreative which bugs me.

Campaign regret? Sure, there's some of that. Getting Survivor 3 while leveling through Prophecies with mostly just henchies is painful and stressful. Would have done it in factions or NF, but EotN wasn't out yet and I hated the faces that Factions and NF had. On top of it all, I didn't even know about the attribute quests in Prophecies so I spent a while wondering why all my PvP character had 200, while I had quite a few less.

my main char, a necro, named Magic Emo Kid

mind you im 18 so im hardly a kid. i like the overall name cause necros are basically magical emos, but the kid part just kinda annoys me. alas i already have obs armor on him and am working on titles for him atm so have no intention on remaking him

I regret "Melandru Chick", but she is too developed to delete. I regreted "Rits dont blow" and deleted him for a new rit.

As far as campaigns go, I'd like to start an assassin in prophecies, but that isn't going to happen.

I'm happy with my characters. I think these things through and check everything I do before I make a character.

Name (and name change) has been discussed into the dirt a thousand times before, so expect lots of flames, particularly because within your first 4 posts you started a rather useless discussion thread.
