No offense, but if it's not a racist or offensive name, who cares? Does it really bother you if you see a Druid with the name Iportyou or something like that? Frankly, I think it's a stupid name, but if people enjoy playing that way then why does it matter.

Thanks, I’m not offended. Firstly, our opinions should be irrelevant. It’s the rules.
But since you asked, it actually does suck to log into a Tolkienesque fantasy land to roam the wilds, smite evil, or infiltrate the goodly city of Qeynos...and see a guy called Portsfoplat or Sirnobhead or Stabziez Urfacelol. It breaks our immersion. This is D&D, not a Blizzard game.
I still have fun playing EQ, of course, and I’m not freaking out over any name, but I would like to exert an influence on the server in the direction in which I would like it to go. Making the original post will have the effect of encouraging those who value the naming rules and perhaps discouraging those who would flout them. I hope others will also petition bad names. Then it will be up to the staff.
