What are the restrictions when it comes to naming pets?
Pet names can be from 1 to 30 characters long and should only contain alphanumeric characters (abc123), periods (.), spaces ( ), dashes (-), underscores (_) or a combination of any of those. The name may not begin with a period. The name must be available, and not already in use by another pet, (usernames don&;t count.) The only exception is for inactive accounts, which will have a note to let you know the their username and all of their pets names are available for you to claim.

• Only the American/English alphabet can be used (Aa, Bb, Cc, etc.).
• The use of unicode, diacritics (accents, tildes, etc.), script languages (Chinese/Japanese/Kanji/Arabic/etc.), or the likes, is not allowed.

Overly vulgar or inappropriate pet and minion names will NOT be tolerated on this site. Some examples of this are names containing or intending to represent swear words, sexually explicit words, or racial slurs. A good rule of thumb is that if it is filtered on the site it should not be used as a pet or minion name. Subeta is a PG-13 site and names need to also be kept below this rating. Any pet found with an inappropriate name will be renamed and the user is often given a warning. You can read more about this in the Rules Center under Inappropriate Pet and Minion Names.
