Wildstar Reserve names

How I get names other than Euchale. Take a dictionary "Your Language - Language you don´t speak". Go into mumble and tell somebody to say stop. Quickly move trough the pages and stop when the person in mumble tells you to do so. Pick any of the names there. Before I was able to speak english I had a character called "Trump" and one called "Nitrous". So yeah, that works pretty well.
 
Ultra CHEZ (or variations of) are rarely taken. I also want to make a Spellslinger called Gonzo Goodaim. I have no idea why.

Hey guys if you're having problems reserving your name because of server issues I found this video helpful and got mine reserved.

 
After attempting to secure my name of choice, "Diremongoose" or at least "Mongoose", I have learned by trial-and-error that any name with the characters 'mongo' anywhere inside it is banned. While I infer that this could be an attack on Mongolians, a quick search of this term shows that the internet doesn't even consider it a slur, never mind as part of a name.

Any sensible person can see that the term 'mongoose' refers to the animal of the same name. I note that League of Legends has similar name censorship, but I hope you consider this request to allow name of choice. I already have a character of the name "Diremongoose" in beta and there has been no issues so far.

In a world where your support staff will have a laborious task of temp-banning idiots with racial slurs masked with L33t speak, can we have a happy ending for once?

I think I got TriageXO I figure since it will be a bunny.... I don't fucking know or really care at this point. That whole thing was a mess and I am glad I was on set and not trying to mess with it. I tried once from my phone and it said it worked, but then I went back on my computer at home and it said name was taken and hadn't saved.

The same thing happend in a German version of a MMO where "weniger" (which means less) was banned by the profanity filter because it contains niger. which is a river...
 
Looks like everything is working smooth this morning. I had no issues and didn't have to use any fancy hacks to get it to work.
 
Response from my support ticket in case anyone else is having issues:

"Hello Citizen of Nexus,
I would like to apologize for any aggravation these issues with the name reservation system have caused. We are still working to correct some issues with this system. As soon as we have more information we will update this ticket to let you know.
Regards,
JD Baker
WildStar Support Team"

Boilerplate response, but hopefully they're working on it.

Latest update:
"Good day, Citizen!
Previously, the Name Reservation filter was being a little too overzealous in its job and blocking names as inappropriate that it shouldn't have. This was recently updated to be more realistic, so please try again to reserve the name you wanted. If your name is still being blocked as not allowed, it may be censored due to our intended filters.
We will not permit names that:
• Have offensive racial, ethnic, national, or cultural connotations
• Include hate speech or bigoted slurs
• Reference sexual acts or real life violence
• Are pornographic
• Make inappropriate references to human anatomy or bodily functions
• Reference illegal drugs or activities
• Reference religious or historical figures
• Reference real-life people
• Reference names of copyrighted or trademarked characters, materials, or products
• Use misspellings or alternative spellings of names that violate any of the above rules
Names that attempt to bypass the above may be subject to name change or suspension of the account. When in doubt, don’t do it!
Cheers,
Elle
WildStar Support Team"
 
I won't know until support get back to me - I lost my reserve chance when I tried to reserve it, then tried random names to figure it out and the count down started.
