First Round of Name Submissions Over

​

The first round of submissions for Commander, NPC, Planet, Jameson and Space Station names have now been looked over and imported back into the web app, so people can now see if their names have been rejected or accepted!

The vast majority of you will be delighted to see that your names have been accepted; however some of you will inevitably be disappointed. As a forewarning, no employee of Frontier will enter into a discussion as to why a name was rejected. To try and justify the reason for every rejection would be far too time consuming and would take time away from more productive activities, such as working on updates, moderating, and helping people with technical issues. However, here is a list of reasons for rejection that covers 99% of cases so far:

Universal Reasons
Profanities
Duplicates
Non UTF-8 characters used
Use of Elite/Frontier names (Jameson, Elite, Braben, etc)

Commander names
Including titles or ranks

NPC names
Numbers and specific special-characters
Potential IP violations

Space stations & planet names
Advertising

Jameson names
Including Jameson in your name

We hope we have made most of you happy with our decisions. For those that have had their submissions rejected, the form will be reopened soon so you’ll have another shot at it!

Thanks, Ashley

Yes very happy. Thank you.

[Baragoon]

All names approved, and considering I signed up on the last day of the kickstarter, makes me feel warm and fuzzy that I am one of a kind.

I'm sure the person I named as my NPC name is going to be mightily chuffed too.

Thanks Frontier!
