Lol... I tried a few different things and now this makes no sense to me whatsoever. I wonder if the GM in era knew what he was talking about, or what the real problem is here.

Got these results from name attempts:

Chinese Checkers - allowed
Danish Muffin - allowed
French Riviera - allowed
Swedish Meatball - allowed
Swedish Idiot - allowed
Swedish Chef - Unacceptable name

WHY is the one name I actually want the only one that is getting denied?!? Lol.... ridiculous! Seriously, does anyone know what is really going on with this?

[Edit: More testing shows that, in fact, names with almost any nationality work just fine (thanks forgotten OSI GM) - BUT typing anything with the word "Chef" following it is considered unacceptable.... ridiculous x infinity.

These were tried -

Russian Mafia - allowed
Russian Chef - Unacceptable name
Crazy Chef - Unacceptable name
Crazy Cheft - allowed
Altimer Chef - Unacceptable name]
