Hello!
I tried to register lastname for my char, but it only says that the lastname "isn't valid" or something like that. The lastnames I tried only use the first letter as uppercase and it wasn't offensive in any way. How come I can't register?

Would be easier to answer if you told us what you tried to name yourself :)

The lastname was "Kaffe". It means "Coffee" in swedish.

maybe a stupid question... is your char level 10 or higher?

afaik lastname wasn't possible before the char reaches level 10...

Naming rules are like dye/model appearance rules, not livelike and made up ad hoc. just take what you can get.

I guess its because of the german word "affe" in it, its "monkey" in english :D

The rules for lastnames indeed are a little bit odd here, yeah.

I checked the blacklist and yes "affe" aka monkey is on the list. I removed it.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

Torfkopf also isn't possible because of "Kopf".. but why is that word on the list?

Thank you, but I wonder why monkey was blacklisted. Monkeys are wonderful creatures. :)

Because you could insult other players like Luppe SohyisadumbMonkey ! ;P

But you're right, they're really wonderful creatures! If it would be appropriate to the species, I would like to have a monkey as a pet :D

Yes Kopf aka Head is much more offending than Affe aka Ape, i agree.

you can make offending lastnames with any word you want to.

Affe was added because we had seen (too many) silly and offending lastnames. Not only directed at persons but also just rude or inappropriate language. I guess the same goes for Kopf.

Can you give examples please? I can't understand that you forbid the word 'head' (=Kopf) too if someones name is for example 'P*nishead'? It's enough to forbid the other part.... :roll:

We were picking 80's song titles for last names. And I wanted WegottheBeat for my Bard. Unfortunately God is in the middle of those 4 english words. So I translated it into Irish for a more Hibbish name. But nobody knows what it means when they see it. :(
