How is my name offensive?

Recommended Posts

on f1 2016 and now f1 2017 when I go to enter my last name (which is shores) into the driver name screen, it says name “denied as this name may cause offence”, I have typed my name into to various search engines but it fails to bring back any form of offensives translations.

Can only think it is a common misspelling of whores

Possibly but why would they censor a misspelling?

Because people misspell things to get around profanity filters. Or maybe the person setting up the blocklist isn't English as first language.
