"That incorporates vulgar language or which are otherwise offensive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable"
Referring to a bodily function doesn't offend me, slander me, speak ill of my race/ethnicity, isn't obscene, isn't hateful, and I don't find it objectional either.
The puritans went mad with hysteria and burned each other to death for a reason...

While I'm in line with you, hasmel, on what I think is inappropriate, I still think Blizz is doing the right thing here. Imagine the outcry, the lawsuits, and the general dumbness that would ensue, for which all we (might) get is the ability to type 'fart' and 'coitus'. It's not that important to me. I can just type it when I'm not playing, and then I'll think what I want.

Most pop-culture references isn't allowed either, as far as I understood it - so that by itself might be enough for someone to report it.
Worth the try, but the possibility that it might not work is there.

I have a toon I've pretty much given up on for now named Wookienutz, thus far hasn't had any issues. But who knows, I've been soloing for the most part, haven't had too much interaction with others as of yet

Blizzard's naming policy for the sake of any naming questions anyone may have.1. Rules Related to User Names. Each user will either select a character name or allow the World of Warcraft software to automatically select a character name at random. Additionally, users may form "guilds" and such guilds will be required to choose a name for the guild. When you choose a character name, create a guild, or otherwise create a label that can be seen by other players of World of Warcraft, you must abide by the following guidelines as well as the rules of common decency. If Blizzard Entertainment finds such a label to be offensive or improper, it may, in its sole and absolute discretion, change the name, remove the label and corresponding chat room, and/or suspend or terminate your use of World of Warcraft. In particular, you may not use any name:
In particular, you may not use any name:
(1) Belonging to another person with the intent to impersonate that person, including without limitation a "Game Master" or any other employee or agent of Blizzard Entertainment;
(2) That incorporates 'swear' words or which are otherwise offensive, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable;
(3) Subject to the rights of any other person or entity without written authorization from that person or entity;
(4) That belongs to a popular culture figure, celebrity, or media personality;
(5) That is, contains, or is substantially similar to a trademark or service mark, whether registered or not;
(6) Belonging to any religious figure or deity;
(7) Taken from Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft products, including character names from the Warcraft series of novels;
(8) Related to drugs, sex, alcohol, or criminal activity;
(9) Comprised of partial or complete sentence (e.g., "Inyourface", "Welovebeef", etc);
(10) Comprised of gibberish (e.g., "Asdfasdf", "Jjxccm", "Hvlldrm");
(11) Referring to pop culture icons or personas;
(12) That utilizes "Leet" or "Dudespeak" (e.g., "Roflcopter", "xxnewbxx", "Roxxoryou")
(13) That incorporates titles. For purposes of this subsection, "titles" shall include without limitation 'rank' titles (e.g., "CorporalTed," or "GeneralVlad"), monarchistic or fantasy titles (e.g., "KingMike", "LordSanchez"), and religious titles (e.g., "ThePope," or "Reverend Al").
You may not use a misspelling or an alternative spelling to circumvent the name restrictions listed above, nor can you have a "first" and "last" name that, when combined, violate the above name restrictions.The puritans went mad with hysteria and burned each other to death for a reason.
