I explained to you very clearly why the team has decided to tell you to change your name during our discussion, the rule for this being "Racism, sexism, or derogatory language is NOT tolerated here on Dinks. This includes Anti-Semitism, Homophobia, and Transphobia." which is stated in the staff guidelines.

People have shown discomfort with the name, and as stated before, it sets a bad precedent of what is allowed to slide on the server. It is truly not impossible to just change your name while you're on the server, and I am completely unsure of why you're deciding to dig yourself deeper.
Okay again perhaps i am not converying my point correctly and i will use the rule itself to explain. 
Tiefling lesbian is openly conveying sexuality and if i were to comment towards her in a negative connotation that would be homophobia and anti-lgtbq language, as i am implying i am attacking her(if that isnt your pronoun i apologize) based on homophobia. 
I came up with the name because i had a pet goose that always attacked my yamaka as an anecdote, this isn't a punchline. You're asking me to change my name based on the opinion of a few who are uncomfortable.
having a sexuality as a name is not the same as acting sexually towards other players, this is a false equivalence and not helping your point. I understand you may have connections to your name as a childhood thing and are Jewish yourself but that does not give you the right to make people uncomfortable with your personal experiences. I could make comparisons to other names that would not be allowed with similar reasoning but that just wouldn't change the fact that it's causing issues. Using buzzwords like "thought policing" just shows that you have no sound logic to why you should *not* have to change your name.

I like you goose, but come on man this is just being silly now.
Having antisemetic in my name is not being antisemetic towards others. The idea of anti-Semitism is not descripting towards others
if i were to call tiefling a lesbian, could she not bring me into the forums for homophobia? in a negative connotation
