I find it more immersive to make characters that look like me in games like this, so kudos to the devs for making that possible for people who aren’t as generic-looking as myself.

Weirdly enough, my name “Sam” was censored due to profanity, but “Sam-James” was just fine. One thing to consider is that your account name is also your character’s name and cannot be changed, even if you create characters of different genders down the line.
