Look at the Topic "Current Account Situation", if your Name apears in the List of the first Posting, than you might got deleted.


Else, you should wait longer.

Why are you asking us? You have your own eyes and fingers to click to the rules page and read it.

Well, the rules are clear enough. So if you looked at them all and your name doesn't violate any of them then the chance is quite high that it is not a bad name ;)
However, I wouldn't have taken the short form of an existing name (better the whole long name, as this fits better into the medieval style background) and I wouldn't have taken a greek god as a surname, too. But this is not against the rules and it's not up to me to judge.

The best idea is always trying to create a completely original name. This sounds the most "phantastic" and you won't run into trouble because the name is unfitting, at least as long as it is a name that a member of your chosen race would use.

There is a lot more lieniency given for last names. First names are extremely strict, which I like. Google finds absolutely no hits for "Thereadore".

You didn't know Apollo was the name of a Greek god?! Oh, I see. If you went through an American school system like me, you are excused. :wink: :D

In my name I didn't put a last name because he came from a poor backround. My character's last name is as....hmmm shall we say? Pitiful because of the backround it has. I can't quite pin point the word to say it. Although yeah I guess that name is cool. Although the Apollo sounds like the space mission to the moon :D

My name (Proximo)

Post by wr4th »

Like Chris, i would kinda like to know wheather or not my name is valid. It's Proximo. Yes it's from the Gladiator and the name rules state
Don't take names from books, films or computer games, create your own ones. If you take existing names, other people will expect that you act exactly like the person whose name you have. If you don't, the roleplay will be disturbed.
Unfortunatly i didn't read the name rules first. but i like the name. do you think they will delete my account request?
