Would it lock players from things (e.g. you can't set your name to Bob Zakuto) unless in the family?

It should work that way.
I see no problem with that as long as members can easily add more family members. To make it more realistic, he could do a generation-system. The first generation would be the creator + a possible spouse. Everyone added would be under that generation (the creator's offspring). Then, each member can add 1 spouse + infinite offspring (spouse not necessary for offspring). Only problem I see is if you want to start the family off as a bunch of brothers or sisters. To do that, there could also be an option, to have a sort of dummy-father/mother to the family (doesn't have to be a real person, just a place-holder). To add another twist to it, you could have it so males can have more offspring than females.

That'll be the day.

I guess that sounds okay, but I don't really like the idea of a hierarchy system like you laid it out. I'd rather just have a list of people, with one person with supreme control (cannot be removed, can do whatever) and then everyone can add, supreme can remove (and he can make supreme-ish people). Just an idea.

Would like to hear what Ziro says

It would be useful if you wish to change your RP character.
