"A Family/Sim Name or Description contains a disallowed word." But none are bad?

Hi! I'm having problems sharing my sim family to the Gallery. I love making anime/game characters and sharing them to the gallery for others but after trying to make the girls from Doki Doki, the game now straight up refuses to let me share them. When I try to it gives the message saying that one of the sims or the family name or the description contains a disallowed word. The only problem is...I don't know what it could be as there's no swearing no perversion, no nothing that could be bad. It tells me that it is the description that contains the disallowed word (the red outline goes around it and says 'Description contains a disallowed word') yet I took away everything that was in the description and it was still saying it. This is what I had in the description for the girls household. "I tried to make #Natsuki #Yuri #Sayori and #Monika from #DokiDokiLiteratureClub. #DokiDoki #ddlc. I'm sorry I didn't get some things right with Yuri's hair and Natsuki doesn't have her ribbon while Monika doesn't have her bow. I used all I had to make them so please forgive me!" As I mentioned before I removed all of that and it was still giving me that message. The girls all have their names as the first name and I put DDLC as the last name since they didn't have one. I attached two pictures to show what is happening. In the second one you can see that the description is gone. I looked over all of the characters and there was nothing that popped up saying 'Sim name not allowed' or 'Family name not allowed' If someone could help me figure out what is going on it would be greatly appreciated! I just want to share my creations with others. Thank you in advance.

    @EA_David Apparently what the problem was, was the tag #ddlc and the last names being Ddlc. I have no idea why that wouldn't be allowed, as it's the acronym for the name, but I took that tag out and changed the last names to Doki and now it works.

    It wouldn’t let me name my dog C.P. (For couch potato.) Or CP, or CeePee, but I finally got Cee P to work. So strange, since it still sounds the same.

    I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.
     
    If you have any issues with Sims 4 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.

    So I was saving a MAXIS original lot into my gallery to move it over to another neighborhood and a popup came with "Disallowed word in description." It's not a big problem, I wasn't going to put it online anyway but now I'm REALLY curious to find out what the AI finds inappropriate :D 

    Text is in Finnish and is the official description of the Honeydew Fields lot. I can't figure out is the AI angry about it in Finnish or English and I can't find anything inappropriate about it in either language. Maybe someone who speaks English as their mother's tongue sees it?
