Can we not use gimmicky names, please?

Vile, profane, rude, or racist names including common swear words, anatomical references, racial slurs, and homonyms of these words. Combinations of words that produce an offensive result (e.g. Hugeaz, Tug Mcgroin). Names of religious, occult, or significant historic origin (e.g. Jesus, Allah, Satan, Stalin, Angel, Devil, Demon).

Understandable, someone who joins this server shouldn't be subject to reading "Phuck Yoo"" and "Devil Worshipper" when they're grouping in Guk.

Non-fantasy oriented names from popular media. These names can be either fictional (e.g. Rambo, Darthvader) or non-fictional (e.g. Garth Brooks, Pierce Brosnan, Ronald Reagan, Michael Jordan).

This is a bit ridiculous, though. I understand Sony wanted to create immersion in EQ when it launched, but this is an Emu server. If someone wants to name their human rogue "James Bond," or their gnome warrior "Napoleon Bonaparte," is it going to ruin your experience, or just make you laugh at their creativity?

Not that I'm biased, or anything, heh.
