Your name

HELP Scroll - 4.1 Names
In the realm of Aetolia, we encourage you to put some thought into your
name, and avoid the embarrassment that comes later when your peers have
a good giggle at your expense. We realize sometimes it's hard to think
of a good name, so we have written the following as a simple guide!

Good Names
--------------------
 - Good names are those that you've created on your own. Unique
   names that you've never seen before anywhere else.

Acceptable Names
--------------------
 - Acceptable names are those that you may have heard in real
   life. Names such as Susan, Henry and so on.

Unacceptable Names
--------------------
 - Those names that we ask you to avoid are ones you may find in
   any historical context, or ones you will find in a book or
   anime. Other unacceptable names are those that are made of
   compound words, such as 'Evilbloodsucker'.

 - In addition, names that are cursewords, racial slurs or
   otherwise offensive names. Names that are completely
   unpronounceable such as 'Xqtzrl' will also result in you being
   requested to change your name.

Whilst we realize that sometimes poor names will get through, this is
not an acceptable reason for refusing to change your name. If you are
asked to by a guide, Celani or Divine, it is expected that you will do
so.

Choosing an imaginative and acceptable name will greatly increase your
experiences within the realm, and you will find your peers will have
much more time for you.

If, after reading this, you wish to change your name, HELP NAMECHANGE
will explain the way in which to do it.
