I had the urge last night to make a new pirate with a Chinese lineage. I went through character creation and I ended up quite pleased with how my pirate turned out. Then came the option to name my pirate. I refuse to use the pre-chosen names so I made one up
"Hoang Bien"
Yes it's a Japanese name (it was late last night) but I liked the definitions: Ocean and Phoenix.
This morning I logged in, and with a sigh, found that my name was rejected. So I just got back from reading their naming policy when I was just about to try a Chinese name.
After reading the naming guidelines I know this one will be rejected.
I understand why they would make such a rule but it is awfully limiting when a player wishes to make a non-English sounding name.
My other pirates are:
- Lucrecia Merlose
- Aulliwyn Garamonde
So, are those English words?
Well, discuss, I guess...
