I have a concern.  I saved a Sim or Household.  An original creation on my Xbox Series S.  I created it a couple weeks ago.  I saved it twice.  Recently, I wanted to make some minor changes to it, and save it again.  The Gallery would not allow me to save or upload the newest version.  I did not change his name, I just made an update.  It told me that his full name is disallowed.  That was news to me, since its the EXACT same sim I uploaded before.  The name did NOT change.  So long story short, I could NOT put my new Sim on the Gallery.  What steps or procedures do you use to "disallow" a name?  And how is it possible that a name can be disallowed after using it twice prior?  What suddenly changed?  I don't want to change his name, its my original.  And I am not going to delete it.  Check out my EA: angelboi7531  The Sim's name is Adam McGregor.  I assume the last name "McGregor" is suddenly disallowed, because Adam is a common name.  But like I said, it's the same exact Sim I saved prior, minus a minor update!  Please help.  I will try to include a picture in the comments.  Thank you for your time.  NOTE:  I have found other Sims and Households with the "exact" same last name.  So I don't know what the problem is??

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.106.148.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? by trying to upload anything from CAS
What happens when the bug occurs? When you try to upload to the gallery from CAS it says the name of the sim, no matter what name is disallowed.
What do you expect to see? I should be able to just upload from CAS.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

‌

No matter what I change my Sims name to I cannot upload the sims to the gallery. This is just one example of one household but it's happening to me and my friends no matter who we try to upload or what the name is. I first tried to upload with names I have made, and when it didn't work, I used the in-game randomizer for first and last names. It still didn't work.

I get the idea the filter system is updated, I read posts and a lot players face the same issues as I do.
But what is going on exactly? Because we have no idea the standard of the disallowed words and the problem "words" won't underline it, everyone has to guess individually to see which words are causing the issues.
Fine. I removed the sim background and even the name to ensure nothing was alerted by the system.

But It doesn't help.

Take a good look at the two pics i provided, i LITERALLY put zero content for my sims and the name try with"female" girl" "base" women" "basic" and "miss", and the system still blocking me.

WHAT CAUSING IT?
IT REALLY FRUSTRATING.

Hi. I created a family of two aliens (YA father and child daughter) and two werewolves (one YA father and one child son) and I wanted to upload them to the gallery, But it tells me I can't because Sim name is banned. That would be fine and all, if I was told which of those four names was banned. But that's the problem, it doesn't. I thought it were the aliens' names, so, I changed them. But even after fourth try, the names aren't allowed. The current names are: G'gg G'rg and M'x G'rg. I tried those names without the apostrophes too. But I am starting to think that maybe the werewolves' names are the problem. Their names are: Sid Rex and Timothy Rex. May one of these names be an issue? Please help me figure this out.

I cannot add any sims to the gallery due to naming issues. Even sims4 generated ones. I'm creating the characters from strawberry shortcake and it hates all of their names. I even used my own name and it said it's inappropriate for the gallery. (I've uploaded myself previously with the same exact name.) I'm increasingly frustrated by this.

OK, so, I went and tried to upload the two families separately and found out it indeed is the Rex family that is problematic. So, I tried to upload the two Rex Sims separately, but couldn't upload either of them. Now, that I know where the problem is, I can change the "bad" name.

But can someone tell me why the name Rex is banned? The name means King in Latin and is very common dog name that is used even in kids shows, like Paw Patrol that also has a pup named Rex. Which is, actually, why I used it as Werewolves name. It was some sort of joke. Well, now, I have to come with a new joke. But I still don't get it. What is so bad about the name Rex that it was banned?

OK, after I tried to come up with different last name for the Rex family, I found out that the name Sid is also banned. Just great. What is the chance to use two "bad" names for one Sim? And once again, I just don't understand why the name Sid is banned. Well, now, he is Hunter Reks. And yes, Reks passed through the gallery filter, somehow. I really don't get the gallery censorship, you know.

Reported the name Sid Rex in the feedback survey. Hope it will be fixed. There's not anything else I can do.
