Strictly offensive

So, someone at Sony Online decided that my main character's name on SWG is offensive and has deactivated that character until I can submit an acceptable name to change it to. Originally my transdoshan smuggler was named Nigs Q'tal, but it was changed to Niigs Q'tal when I moved the character from Gorath to Starsider, because the "name was already taken". No one ever complained about the name before when I submitted help tickets nor when I transferred to another server, but suddenly now it's bad. I'm not so dense as to not see what the name might imply, but it's opening up a huge can of worms. Words that can mean one thing to one person can mean something entirely different to another. Needless to say I am disappointed at being forced to change names, especially since I never considered that that name might be similar to a derogatory slang term.
