Titan & Adam are the ones who didn't get accepted. Which is stupid since Adam is like my own name as well.

I bet this'll be bad news for any player whose name is Adam, they have to end up using a different name for their in-game trainer because the censored word present in the name is "dam" which is pretty much a simple cuss word. Still, I feel sad for anyone named Adam here.

Titan's censoring is due to the word "tit" which is obvious enough.

Slightly off-topic, but "Wind God's Aria" is censored on Miiverse, and I think the censored part might be "god"...
 
I'm going to create a new language, and every English word will be some sort of curse word. Game Freak will have to ban every English word, because I'll be offended.

I laughed at this.

So this post isn't irrelevant, has anyone figured out why "dreaming" is apparently censored in Tomodachi Life yet?

Anyone remember when Froslass wasn't allowed to be traded on the GTS because of the last three letters of her name? I dunno if they ever fixed that

That was the same for CoFAGrigus and any pokemon that had "ss" or "sa" in their name

In French, we have Écrapince (Corphish) and Crapustule (Seismitoad)! Meanwhile, on a French forum somewhere...

The devs are wild, mindless animals

Oh, and on Miiverse, I'm pretty sure "god" is censored. Presumably it's censored in other languages as well, so how do Japanese people talk about A Link to the Past? (Kamigami no Triforce, "Triforce of the Gods")

I just bred a nice sandile....I wanted to name him Sobek, after the Egyptian god of the Nile...apparently that's not allowed so I went with Sebek (a less powerful alternate transliteration) instead...is there something wrong with "sob"? Also, I can't name my corphish "Cajun Spice" so I went with "Hotpot" instead...

SOB can stand for Son of a B... I'm surprised they let you put pot in the name.

Were it so easy.
I was so angry when I started Pokemon Y and found that my last name was censored. They've even had Trainers use it in-game! Gentleman Tucker and Dome Ace Tucker.

I get that it's obviously close to a bad word but come on, it's a real name and they've used it themselves!

I wanted to name my Flygon Skyscraper, but the game denied me.

Seriously, what is so wrong about the word skyscraper?
