Unacceptable names

I was recently increasing my animal taming skill. In the process of doing so, I attempted to name my tame 'yoda'. That name is deemed unacceptable. My question is, Why?
Does anyone else know of other names for tames that are unacceptable?

One of the GM's is named
Yoda, players/pets are not allowed to have the same name as GM's/Admins

Is that era-accurate? Blocking of character/tame names because admin/staff were named that?
Just curious ;p

Thanks. I tried 'yod' and that is unacceptable too. Also 'hitler' is unacceptable.

Oddly, you can not have "The Swedish Chef" but you can have "The American Idiot".

Obviously you couldn't name yourself "GM ..." anything on OSI, but as for the actual names themselves I don't know; there was a lot more GMs/Staff back then so its a lot of names to ban.
