It doesn't have to be explicitly pejorative to be inappropriate. Let's assume for a moment that you accept that Holocaust = Jewish Genocide. If the name of the guild was "Jewish Genocide" would there be any doubt whether or not it was inappropriate?

That's the rub. If the guild name were "The Holocaust", I'd ride the white horse 'til it died.
It's all subjective. When I hear the word, I don't associate it with the Shoah automatically. The guild name makes perfect sense in the primary definition of the word when applied to the server, and makes much
less sense as an intentional slur against Jews.
