I logged in last week to discover that my name was changed by Bungie to a default "Guardian####"; no fanfare, no warning, nothing. I've had this name for years, it has absolutely no negative connotation that I can even find, so I'd love to find out why my name has been struck- and furthermore why I can't change it to anything else? Is there something sinister I'm not aware of, or is it (more likely) that Bungie's name-bot filter was overzealous?

The name removal IS the warning.
What was the old name?
The reason a lot of players right now can't change their names is because of a bug that is deleting name tokens.
So until they fix it no one can change their names.
