Can someone tell me why I can't use my name "Georgia" as my avie's name?

It's a great name.  It's anyone's guess why the system won't let you use it.  There are plenty of mysteries like that in SL.  Maybe it's the name of Rodvik's ex-wife?

Hello,

I also just tried and got a message that a display name containing 'Georgia' is banned.

I am not sure, it is possible to use other Countrie's or US. state's names, e.g. I tried with 'Vermont' and 'Austria' with some alts and it worked (although I had hoped it wouldn't work, because now 2 of my alts have ridiculous names for at least a week:P ).

Someone said in a previous thread about that issue, that the name 'Georgia' could sound too similar to the word 'Gor' and is maybe banned therefore, but that doesn't sound very reasonable.

Also it would be possible that it's banned because it contains the spanish word 'orgia'.

There have been other instances where the name Georgia was not allowed.

So far, it remains a mystery as to why.

Hilarious - about your alts having ridiculous names for the week.

SL is strange...  I'm thinking it may have to do with this bolded part?
