In BG1 you could advance and you were called Fallen Paladin. I'm sure someone will confirm this being the case also for BG2.

Life seems short considering how long you will be dead.
I played a Paladin in Baldur's Gate 1 and I was not able to put more then two ++ in a weapon slot. I believe that Paladin's because they get other bonuses, can only specialize(++). If one lose all their Paladin bonuses once one becomes Fallen, but then gain the ability to have +++++ as a fighter, why not just play a fighter in the first place? If they get other bonuses as a fallen paladin then I don't believe they should then get the +++++. But I am not sure.
Yin and Yang balance. There is one within the other. No Difference in Reality. What do you experience?
I have this thing about stylish titles. Fighter just sounds too one-dimensional, but Fallen Paladin suggests a rebelious, more imposing type of person.
I saved Suldanesellar from destruction, and all I got was this stupid amulet.
I started a Fallen Paladin character for BG1. I hacked in the Helm of Opposite Alignment first to give him the proper outlook then went about being evil. It's cool for Role-playing purposes.
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

I played as a Fallen ranger for while, and the screen said "Fallen ranger", so I should be the same for paladins.
I don't thing you will gain any advantages from the fighter class such as 5 profs and faster level gain. But I agree it's a good idea to play fallen paladin anyway, it's very stylish

It's a pity the group of fallen paladin don't let you join them, even if you're a fallen paladin yourself. A fallen undead hunter working for Bodhi is cool anyway.
You can always use SK to make him stronger, not cheating mind you but creating a new class of warrior. Also can a fallen paladin use cromsyr?
When logic and proportion,
Have fallen sloppy dead,
And the White Knight is talking backwards,
And the Red Queen's "off with her head!"
