I'm new to the server. Tried creating a character with the name of Standish but it won't let me. Apparently, the problem is with Dis in Standish. Also, Dic doesn't work (but that's understandable). I went with Standiish for now, because diish works and the same thing goes for diic.

Just a small technical issue I presume. Thanks for your time.

If it wont allow you to put your name as Standish, its probably because it contains a swear word or homophobic slur

That's what I said in my post. Although I must disagree because it doesn't contain any homophobic slurs nor any swear words. In fact, nothing is offensive in the name of s-t-a-n-d-i-s-h. Standish is an English surname formed from Stan and Dish, and neither is even remotely offensive.
Although I might be wrong, the issue that I've found is with the word of dis, and that can be easily avoided by adding double "I" to the dis; so it becomes like diis. Standish is not acceptable and Standiish is.

I personally find more traditional names better for role play. Some admins might find your name as a fail name and force you to change it. I don’t see an issue but you can always ask the online admins about your name if there’s an issue, and they can even remove the second “i.”
