Hi, @Nunos_Noodle 

Can you let me know what the first and last names are you're trying to use?

Are you able to get it accepted if you use the last name before entering in the first name?

Hi, 

The surname I’m trying to use is mine, ‘Schofield’. It won’t allow it on any EA Sports 21 game. There is nothing offensive/profane about the name. I’ve tried the typing surname before first name, doesn’t work.

    Hey there, @ASovietManI 

    Thanks for the feedback on this. Hopefully, we'll see the profanity filter refined better in future games.

      Hello,

      My surname is Cox and I can't use it.

      I find it so strange seeing that one of the top NFL defensive tackles surname is Cox.

        Hello, @Jdlive07 

        I hate to say it, but, unfortunately, that name could also be used in an offensive manner so chances are good it's going to remain filtered.

      I’m having a profanity issue with my last name on nhl 22. It’s literally a play by play name and I’ve used it in past versions, but for whatever reason “Brennan” is profanity in ‘22.
