Selecting your own gang names

Additionally to that, is there any way of putting in a series of 3 or 4 drop down lists of words for name selection (Like the word lists in the "Fallout-o-matic name generator")? If you increased the dictionaries a little and allow people to request additional words through the forums, then there's a huge amount of possible combinations there - and you'd only have to moderate what was allowed into the dictionary in the first place.
Sure, you can make some pretty silly combinations if you want, but only as silly as "The Imperial Snake Shaggers", rather than "bLueSuItKILLAZLoL!11111b00bs".
I'd imagine the problem would be implementing that sort of menu system into the interface, as other than the "Van Buren style" character creation page in the SDK (menus for hair, skin, build etc), there doesn't appear to be any similar in-game system.

Devs' game, their rules. If they feel that some name is inappropriate, it is their right (and duty) to do whatever they want. Who the fuck are YOU to question devs ? 8)

FFS, I hope not, having cyrilic names is more than enough. European server with worldwide audience, why should certain people have privileges, while others have not. ???

And with that mentality we have companies like EA. :-)
Ever wonder why Valve does so good? They have listened to thier community for a long, long time.
