Showing an actors name in textbox

[Oddball]

So, i'm trying to make a cutscene were the player can change the name of an actor in a cutscene. I want to make it so the charecter goes "My name isnt [insert old name here] anymore, its..." Then a name input pops up, and then they yell the new name. Anyway to do that?

It should be doable to store the actor's name in a variable before you change it, and then call it in the message. $game_actors[n].name should work (from my quick test at least), just change 'n' to whatever the actor's ID is. I set an event up like this, and it worked:
