The only time I ever had trouble was after I named the creature one thing and the person wanted it named differently. It would not take until the day after. Strange.

I've tried simple names on it and they haven't worked, but I got a pet after that and it let me name it. so I'm guessing this must be a problem withthe beetle maybe. anyway thank for the replies.

Make sure there isn't a PC in the game named Angel. It might not let you name pets after people.

I've made a couple of Adv. R3 Droids in the last few days. One of them I named with no problem. The other I gave to my alt, who is not (obviously) a droid engineer. No matter what my alt does in terms of programming the droid, she can't manage to get it to "eat" its name.


In programming, the ? appears and then the !, but not ? related to its name at all.


I guess I'm doling something wrong, but for the life of me I don't know what it is.


Is there a droid naming bug now? Or am I trying to get it to "eat" a name that's not allowed? (The name I was using was "Doc" -- no quotes -- because my alt is a Master Doc and because my RL bird's name is Doc.)


I'm a new Master DE, and I want to be able to answer a question like this from my customers (assuming I have any) should the question come up.

There shouldn't be any problems with naming your droid Doc.


I've heard of some instances when a droid dont accept a name, like if it containes numbers or is to long.


Doc should be doable. Also you need to teach it 4 commands using the name first. Also keep the command to one word. Like "Doc come"


If this still dont work, I dont know whats wrong.

I just tried "Doc" on a probot and it didn't take. It might not be allowed by the filter for some reason.

Thanks to everyone who answered. The filter apparently was the problem -- my droid took "Charlie" just fine. Oh well.
