Policies Character Naming

Character names in Star Wars Galaxies™: An Empire Divided™ should reflect the genre of the game. Original names with science fiction and fantasy themes are highly desired. The naming policy encompasses first and last names.


The following types of names are inappropriate:


1. Vile, profane, rude, or racist names including common swear words, anatomical references, racial slurs, and homonyms of these words.
2. Combinations of words that produce an offensive result (e.g. Hugeaz, Tug Mcgroin).
3. Names of religious, occult, or significant historic origin (e.g. Jesus, Allah, Satan, Stalin, Angel, Devil, Demon).
4. Trademarked names of products, services, or concepts (e.g. , Marlboro, Sony, Band-Aid).
5.Non-fantasy or non-science fiction oriented names from popular fiction or non-fiction media either fictional or non-fictional(e.g. Bill Clinton, Austin Powers, Britneyspears, Harrypotter)
6.Common words and phrases that would not be found in thesetting of the game (e.g. Television, Cellphone, Pickuptruck, Dude). This includes references to drug substances or drug related paraphernalia. (e.g. Ecstacy, Cannibis)
7. Proper names from the Star Wars universe, including the first or last name of any significant NPC in Star Wars Galaxies or the Star Wars universe (e.g. Skywalker, Greedo, Vader, Exar Kun, Xizor, Fett, Tuskien)
8.Names chosen with the intent, or possessedof the effect of harming the reputation of, or used to impersonate a customer or representative of Sony Online Entertainment, LucasArts, LucasfilmEntertainment Company, or any of their partners or affiliates.
9. Names containing titles within them, such as, but not limited to: The, Lord, Lady, Master, King, Knight, Sir, Father (e.g. Sirtallon, Lordeagle, Mothermaggy, Darksister).
10. Fantasy-oriented names that are easily recognized from popular existing media (e.g. Gandalf, Pikachu, Drizzt, Godzilla, Aslan).
11.Names where the combination of the first and last name violate a previous rule (e.g. Harleeda Vidsonn, Clint Eastwood).

For all of the above, misspellings and alternative spellings of the word or words are also unacceptable.

Also, for category 1 or 2 name violations, characters with this type of name can be changed immediately and without notice. These changed characters will lose access to any structures (houses, PA halls, or harvesters, as well as any items in these structures), vendors, and any items on vendors or in the bazaar. There will be no reimbursements made for any items, structures, credits, skills, or any other game related issue directly related to the character name being changed for category 1 or 2 names.


If your name is against any of the above rules you can get it changed
