If your name was initially automatically Guardian'd, then for whatever reason, your name was caught by the filter and prevented its use. You won't be able to change to it since, again, the filter says it's not acceptable. If you're trying to change your name and it's not accepting your change, you'll need to choose something else.

  • Same for me come back 2 days ago after a six-month break to a name change. Can somebody please explain to me how FearNoFish17 is considered offensive it’s a fishing rod manufacturers slogan. It’s been the same name since the alpha of Destiny. If this is the way it’s going to stay ,then I won’t be pre-ordering for the new expansion ,I will delete the game & the app again ,and just move along. Any help would be appreciated.

  • While we don't have specifics on what the filter looks for, based on past discussions on the forums with other users like yourself, it may be the specific combination of the last 4 characters in your name being character replacements for another word that is filtered out of names. I cannot confirm that's the case, but that'd be my guess. You do get a one-time name change. Just like I mentioned to the OP, though, you'll be unable to use the name that was already filtered out.

  • If this is truly the case ,then their filter and system need to be looked into. I know for a fact where Bungie’s stance on bullying is. What’s funny is that’s exactly what I feel like they’re doing to me.

  • If you'd like to leave feedback concerning the system, you should post over in the Destiny 2 - Feedback section concerning your thoughts about the filter.

  • Somebody on a different post just pointed out what you were referencing about the last four. All these years of using that name and never even noticed that. “ -blam!- “ sorry to say but that is a bit ridiculous, & pathetic.

  • the filter is looking for those attempting to evade the filter. Using numbers in place of letters, spaces between letters and hyphens are all ways people try to evade filters.
