Japanese Names Only or...?

I could have sworn we encourage/ensure that members have Japanese character names, don't we? O_o

Encourage? Yes. An absolute rule? Not so much.

Travis is right, there's no absolute rule stating that a character must use a Japanese name. It's just preferred over other languages.

Character Creation Guide wrote:: When it comes to picking a name, we appreciate people being as creative as possible, steering away from the generic names like Kuro, which means Dark. We want all names to be Japanese related, though certain exceptions may be made, avoid common names like James, Peter, Stephanie, Sarah etc. Your name should sit with your surname at the front followed by your first name. For example; Uchiha, Sasuke. Do not forget that comma.

Ok so if my Japanese character meets, say (for example), Liam, how would he then react? Do I have to act as if Liam was a name my character would be used to hearing, or would I go - oh he is a foreigner/has a foreign name.

Just wondering ^^
