Same thing if you think you can get away with greenlivesmatter for your greenskin.
So do we try and keep it warhammer? like instead of coolguyjohn or something are we encouraged to make a lore name?
You don't have to do lore friendly names, for instance im sure something like "Drspaceman" or "Bigguyforyou" would be fine. I like to name a lot of my characters after bands or songs for instance.

yeah I read them all, I didn't find trump offensive, vulgar or racially charged but its a pretty weird one, kind of like "god" or "satan" or something like that. But yeah jaycub didn't like it so that's enough for me to delete it tbh, I think i'll stick with cool greenskins names.

Not sure if its the right place to ask this. its not in the right forum so to say. But as the question about names was brought up here i figured it might be as a good place as any to ask.

I tend to usually keep the names somewhat "clean" so to say" Most of the names i tend to use are not political or sexual. But one name i have on a character might be in a grey area.

Kinkykane. Not that sexual but still. Its a name i have used on other games with no problem. But thought i would ask. if its any problem i don't mind change it. rather that than getting into trouble or annoying people

Full name is Kinkykane Theuseless

Ah right, the crack-down on politically-charged names is very recent and it appears that the rules have not been updated in the original post to reflect that, sorry if I made that confusing. Anyway, to better answer your question, I'd prob just avoid names that have to do with anything that large groups of people are/have been upset about. And of course if you're ever unsure you can just seek out a GM and ask anytime :)

I'm not a GM so don't take this as any kind of "official" guidance but in my experience, and in my opinion, that name is fine.
