If you’re planning on naming your character in World of Warcraft, you need to be aware of the game’s naming policy. There are several rules to follow, including the requirements for names, those that are prohibited in RP realms, and the “mildly inappropriate” category. This article will help you understand these rules. It will also provide information on other aspects of the game’s naming policy.

Name restrictions

To play World of Warcraft, you have to select a name. You may not be able to use your real name because World of Warcraft has certain name restrictions. This policy is outlined in the WORLD OF WARCRAFT(r) TERMS OF USE AGREEMENT under section A. Rules Related to User Names. If you find yourself violating the policy, you can appeal the punishment. Fortunately, there are many options available to you.

The World of Warcraft name restrictions vary by realm. Roleplaying realms have stricter rules when it comes to names, whereas PvP servers don’t. While the rules may seem silly to some, the game only exists because of roleplayers. In addition to following the rules, you can make up your own character name if you want to. Just remember that it must be between two to twelve characters long. Symbols, mixed capitals, and spaces are not supported. You can also type German or old english letters on the character screen if you like, but that’s about it.

Name requirements

Before you can create a character in World of Warcraft, you must choose its name. A character’s name is limited to 12 characters and must adhere to the rules of Blizzard. Your character name cannot contain offensive references, real life titles, gibberish, or punctuation marks. However, you are allowed to use accented characters. It will begin with a capital letter and go downwards from there.

Reserve your character name by signing up for an active WoW subscription. You can reserve up to three character names on your account, and you must select your realm when reserving your name. World of Warcraft’s server will go through several stress tests, so be sure to choose the right one. You can choose up to three different character names in a single subscription. This way, you won’t have to worry about using another character’s name once you’ve made your first one.

Name restrictions for RP realms

Name restrictions on RP realms in World of Warcraft are somewhat more lax than on other servers. Characters are not allowed to have names containing sexy or offensive words. However, players should still be aware of the rules and avoid breaking them. Blizzard does not actively patrol the naming guidelines for RP realms, and if you find a name you don’t like, you can report it to the RP realm.

Changing your name on an RP realm is possible, but you may have to use special letter character alt codes to get around the rules. It’s best to check the rules for the realm you’re planning to join first, so that you don’t run into any surprises later. Changing your name is easy enough: you simply right-click the chat tab, then choose “Rename” and “Delete.”

Names that fall under “mildly inappropriate” category

Several categories exist within the World of Warcraft naming policy. Names that fall into these categories are generally considered inappropriate. Generally, names falling into this category are not banned, but they will not be used in the chat or arena unless they are deemed offensive. For clarification, see the links below. These policies are meant to be applied in the context of the community and are not intended to penalize anyone based on the name.
