… “Izzy”, but according to a shortly flashing message, “The name was not acceptable”.

-> WTH?

Maybe it’s already an NPC name?

It is, Izzy is one of the developers of Anet and he had quite a few npcs named after him in GW1, wouldn’t be surprised if it were the case in GW2.

Okay, while I see why that name is then reserved, maybe the error message should be something more along the lines (“this name is reserved”). I was already scratching my head whether it could in any way be something offensive.

Yeah I personally don’t think it’s that big of a deal if players name their pets after npcs, because seriously… In what scenario will that really harm someone in this game? Competitive pvp doesn’t have any random NPCs after all…
