On '''28 October UTC''', Kaivax identified an overly strict Forever name check, including false rejection of names containing '''con'''. A fix was scheduled for regional restarts.<ref>Kaivax, [https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/2394467/1 naming notice], 28 October 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
Later that day, support reported hotfixes addressing several naming issues. If the change has not appeared after a few minutes logged in, the advice is to switch rulesets and return.<ref>Vrakthris, [https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/2394071/14 support follow-up], 28 October 2026.</ref><br />
<br />
Acceptance, [[Character names|name availability]] and regional status remain unverified here.<br />
