My name is palmer it accepts my last name as Palmer but won't let me use pal as the abbreviated name. Silly really.

Possibly because PAL is already taken by Jolyon Palmer?

Hey @Hoo do you know if there is a timeline for the next patch to fix the name issues? Sorry to bug just wondering if it's a long wait or just start a career as a different name

My surname Marsh isn't accepted. Struggling to understand how this got past QA. Other than this, best F1 game yet. Playing on Xbox One.

Can we get an update from Codemasters on this issue?

It seems that every name with "ars" inside it is banned

We're resolving this on PC in patches, and we're going to be resolving it on consoles in patches coming shortly.

It WILL let me have Codies D'ontcare as my name.

@F1randokalbus22 That's what I'd determined too. Frustrating, there must be loads of names with 'ars' in them. Overly sensitive.

@jennyannem Thanks for feeding back.

The game said my family name "Wang" was offensive, but "Wang" is a common surname in China.

I think it's reached the point where we call time on this. Thank you all for your helpful feedback and thank you also for your humour.
