Issue with renaming

I am trying to rename one of my creatures, I just did a trade.
It's name is Chiyuri, a real life, Japanese name.
It tells me this when I try to rename a creature:

Oops! Please take a look at the following:
You are not permitted to use this creature name.

Don't quite understand why?

There can't be duplicate names on the site; someone else must have named his/her creature Chiyuri. Try naming yours -Chiyuri, Chiyuri_, or something like that.

Hope this helps. 😊

I am a member of 2+ years. I know how to rename.

I searched in the search box Chiyuri, no creatures with that name.

This is not a problem of someone having the same name, it's something else.

Maybe because it has the word yuri in it? Some words seem to be banned or something.

EDIT:

Yep. Though it isn't really a curse word, the last four letters are too inappropriate for the site.

It might be because of that. But kind of disappointed that I can't rename it to Chiyuri because of that :/

@frau

Maybe you could name it Chiy-uri?

I really don't like hyphens, I just want the name >< Name's from an anime I quite like..

@frau

Yeah, I don't like them too much either. What anime is the name from?

@lykhaos117
I hope they let me rename it u-u

Touhou Project.

@frau

What other anime do you like?

That's strange, there are other pets with both parts of the name seperately

...I only thought Touhou was a game XD //goes to sing Bad Apple
