Space names invalid

So I was just trying to use the new space name feature to basically give some of my toons new names, i.e. turning "Siannadi" into "Master Siannadi" basically in an effort to circumvent the title limitation to allow myself a pre-name title in combo with a normal post-name title, but everytime I try, I get told that the new name is invalid. I've tried various ways of typing "Master" or "Siannadi", with apostrophes and accents and whatnot, but nothing will work.

Is this new feature simply bugged or is it a case of certain titles not being accepted as names? Cause I'd hate to have wasted my CC on a rename token I can't use the way I intended...

    According to the Bioware Terms of Service:

    You may not use names containing titles or ranks within them, e.g. General Supertrooper, Captain Tim, Darth Timmy, Knight Wakey.

    So I would imagine that "Master" falls under the prohibition of that.

    I'm still trying to figure out why "Sarge" does not work though. Sergeant is a title. Sarge is slang, NOT a title, even though it references one, so it should be allowed.

    Riiiight, that would explain it. Duh xD

    Completely forgot about that, thanks for the answer 🙂
