Apologies if this is skirting too close to the wrath of Vyndree, but I believe people in the past have done paid character transfers to get toons off accounts with a different name, ie Joe Smith has 2 accounts in his name and has toons on his brother Jeff Smith's account, he paid transfers them off to a new account in Joe Smith's name. Then he has 3 accounts with the same info. To my knowledge that's about the only way to "rehab" a situation of a shared account to make one pretty safe from scrutiny once multiboxing.
It's not necessarily MY wrath, but Blizzard's wrath you'd be facing in this case. Just because you don't get CAUGHT for doing something like this, doesn't mean it's not against the rules.

The reason this sort of thing is even remotely doable is because its INTENTION was so that people who made accounts like "Bob Smith" and "Robert Smith" -- where Bob is a nickname for Robert -- could transfer characters between his two owned accounts. It is NOT intended for the use of transferring "Susan Smith"'s character to her cousin, "Joebob Smith"'s account.

There should be a very clear distinction in the WOW character transfer FAQ about it... I'd link it but I'm running a little late at work so I'll stick a To-do here for me to give the link/quote when I get home.
