Nicknames and policy

"This Naming Policy applies to all player-made names in the games we publish, such as characters, companies, guilds, and pets.

In addition to following our Code of Conduct, player-made names may not:

  • Cause or intend to cause disruptive behavior, such as names that could be offensive or inappropriate to others (e.g., based on context), names that impart any hate toward a person or group of people, including names that reference or glorify discriminatory, terrorist, violent extremist, or criminal organizations as well as their figureheads.
  • Impersonate any individual or entity, including employees or representatives of Amazon.
  • Promote illegal substances, actions, or behaviors.
  • Solicit or promote businesses.
  • Violate anyone’s intellectual property (e.g., trademarked names), or other proprietary rights.
  • Use misspellings, alternate spellings, or combinations of words, symbols, and letters to produce a result that would otherwise violate this policy.

Character names may not contain names of significant in-game non-playable characters, groups, items, locations, or lore.

Specific games may have additional naming restrictions posted in support articles or forums. This is not an exhaustive list of things you shouldn’t do in creating names, and we may update this policy as our games and community evolve. We reserve the right to take corrective action at any time for any name that we determine to be offensive, inappropriate, or otherwise violate this policy.

Thank you for being respectful of others in our games and community.

according to the new world naming policies and rules I would like to know if my nick configures any of them and if it violates them.

1- My nick is Jesuis Cristo does he violate any rules?

2- roleplay configures as impersonation?

3- nicks like “Jedi y0da”, “Darthu Mau”, “Harry Pigger”, “Jisus Cristy” , “Lucyfer”, “kratuous”, these nicks configure as personification of someone?

Hello @Jesuis,

Your nick name (Jesuis Cristo) looks fine and does not violate the naming policies.

If you believe your account was penalized in error, you may choose to appeal it by contacting us through the applicable game’s support page.

Thank you for being respectful of others in our games and community.

Have a great day!

the moderation of Brazil forum are in disagreement. while the moderation in Brazil is not managing to interpret its own code of conduct and framed my nickname Jesuis Cristo as:
" * promotes or encourages discrimination, defamation, harassment or violence based on race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, serious health problem or veteran status; "

For looking a lot like Jesus Christ. but Jesuis Cristo is a nickname I take to several games and, by the way, it’s my father’s nickname in real life and which was also transferred to me in my teens. so I need explanations, because if you can’t name similar to religious you should banish
all pedros, paulos, marias and joses

brazilian post

My nickname Jesuis Cristo doesn’t do any of these things, I don’t promote or encourage any of the things it talks about as “discrimination, defamation, harassment or violence” based on none of the other things it says.

I think brazilian moderation is failing to interpret the game’s own policy.

Your quote says I can’t make a religious reference that discriminates or defames or harass or harass someone, it doesn’t say I can’t have a biblical name.

and that actually the real name would be Jesus and not mine which is Jesuis (I’m in French) a nickname carried by my father and me since childhood, which I’ve used in several online games. Obviously a similarity that doesn’t hurt anyone, as described in your previous mention. By the way, I never even said a bad word in this game. you can ask everyone on my server and you can get the chat logs and see what I’m talking about.

in fact it is a common name like any other. just as I mentioned is a biblical name, if that is the case then biblical names are prohibited? Nicks like José, Maria, Gabriel, Rafael among others? They are biblical names.

@MelodySparks and something else also didn’t send a rename to my username.

but I would like more explanation of the case and more case studies. After all, Nordic names, religious, video game characters that exchange letters for numbers and even obscene the game is full.
I hope my case is better evaluated.
For it doesn’t even seem correct to mention it.
remembering that moderation in Brazil did not leave me the right to reply, having to open another post.
