I'd like to see 2 mirrored servers so spread this population out some and then after awhile just merge the two if the combined population falls below a certain level. I think 2000-2500 is a healthy number for a server, when you start getting more than that, questing and other things start to get toxic. Like having 5:1 quester to monster ratio in zones. It fucking sucks and isn't fun having to compete with 15 other people for a stupid quest that should take 5-10 minutes but instead takes a whole hour.

So what do we do when population decrease and we have two half-empty servers? (i.e. retail situation before cross-realms was introduced)

Splitting population would be terrible. The questing experience will smooth out with the passage of time as the vast majority approach lvl60. Having a 5k population server when most are lvl60 will be completely fine.
For now, bite your lip and carry on.

The 1-10 zones are already emptying out and while the 10-20 are undoubtedly very busy, the 20-30 zones aren't too full either, because population spreads around more. The problem will be gone in few more days as more and more players reach the 40-50 and 50-60 zones and leave the lower level areas.
Meanwhile, enjoy the number of ad hoc groups that spring up around quest areas. Invite people to your group or ask others to invite you to theirs at all times. Even if you're grinding mobs and someone else is killing them for a quest, it makes sense to share the kills with that person - if for no other reason than you get rid of them quicker that way and the smaller XP you get in a party is still better than no XP from mobs that they've tagged.

What about people with duplicate character names? Who gets to keep their name?

If you happened to check other posts, the administrator clearly stated that they would NEVER make a new server be it PvE or PvP. Use the search button.
