Unsure which word resulted in the "Disallowed words" error.

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.

I was able to download to gallery 1st time. then I realized I had not added the description so I went back to the family and do so and and there was a hashtag. I deleted hashtag and put description and been getting the error name disallowed

  @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

    @nadifb, since @Eeekey hasn't replied, DLC means Down Loaded Content. 🙂 Which is why it is odd that the EA filter finds it an offensive term since they often give out DLC and use the term themselves!🤭
