Hi i wanna talk about name change. My main recently race changed, and i decided id change the name too. Funny thing is, i searched for the name i wanted BEFORE i got the race change, there were nobody on my server named that name. THEN, when i get the race change and try to take the name i wanted, it says "That name is unavailable" which it usually only says if someone is already named that, which cant have been because i checked BEFORE i got my race change.


Just curious, why is this?

Inappropriate

This category includes both clear and masked names which:

Are illness/disease names (Cancer, Tetanus, etc)

from http://eu.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_GB&articleId=50140#1

I think most of the ones that exist have been around for a while.

Confirmed - this name is not supposed to be available as it's a violation of our naming policies, so please pick a name that follows the policies.

You're more than welcome to submit a ticket to report this name if you see it used by other players on any other servers.

I think you mean "more appropriate" instead of better. I mean, who are you or anyone else to decide what is better according to someone?

You're right, it would have been better to say "more appropriate", my bad!
