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.

    Seriously??
    Fletcher Cox is ranked as the No. 2 defensive lineman in Madden 22! Should his name be banned??
    I could understand if somebody was trying to use c*cks.
    This is absolutely unacceptable!

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.

  What are you putting as your first name?

    Not sure if this is still active. On NHL 23, the name Snorky is now flagged as profanity after using it at least the last 2 years. Doesn’t matter if it’s my player name or EASHL club name, any variant containing “snork” gets flagged as inappropriate.
