It must have something to do with the multiple language settings of the Sims gallery.

On the Dutch language page of AHQ we had a similar situation. The very common Dutch word 'lekker' seemed to be not allowed. At least when that word was skipped uploading was not a problem anymore.

But it could also have to do with the sim names gamers use. I couldn't upload my sims with the first name Yuki and Candy. As soon as I changed these names the problem was over.
In your case, Miss_Rin_Evans, it could be the fact that the name Bailey is already in the game. May be you should try uploading your sims individually and see if that gives a better result.

        @EuphorialQueen It sort of was resolved. I still can't share this particular family but just deleted the family.

        @I-Drop-Gems what does"DLC" mean?

        @Miss_Rin_Evans this seems to be a quirt in the Gallery. I am having the same problem with one of my families. Someone else was able to use the same names but I can't.Crazy right! SMH
