Unavailable names

[stegmite]

Is there a place in the database where I can change the "forbidden" names? I tried creating a test character named Legion, and it popped up unavailable.

It's not in the DB; it's stored in NamesProfanity.dbc and NamesReserved.dbc

Hate to keep bothering you, but what program can I use to edit a .dbc file?

[Yamachi]

use DBCUtil (http://wowdev.org/files/uploads/dbcutil.zip) to convert the DBCs to .csv format, then edit it with CSVed (http://home.hccnet.nl/s.j.francke/csved/csvedsetup.exe). When you're finished, convert the .csv file back to DBC with DBCUtil, then add it to a custom patch MPQ, using MyWarcraftStudio (http://wowdev.org/files/uploads/MyWa...Studio_0.9.rar)

Thanks again

Or just create a random character and change its name in the DB afterward.
