The name “freddy” is not automatically fnaf related! THIS IS EXCLUDING THE PEOPLE NAMED FREDDY!!!

You can use the name “Fred”, right?

ya but still

I think it would be better to avoid allowing people to view FNaF projects easily than to add this…

So you're gonna mark “Annabelle” as NFE just because it's the name of a doll in a horror movie?

Yeah.
Support. It's an innocent name, and there are other ways to prevent FNaF projects from being viewed

Support. Scratch should only censor these things if they are put in a sentence verifying that the scratcher is talking about the actual thing being censored.

I think it's quite annoying that freddy is automatically censored. I know some people named freddy and most of them haven't even heard of fnaf.

Support, Yeah Freddy is the name of a character in FNAF but It's also just a name, It's not like a swear or anything.

Support, if the name Freddy is used for a FNAF project, you can report it. It's as simple as that, no need to mark the name Freddy as NFE.

Support ^^^^

Everybody here needs to remember that FNaF related projects are allowed, just not main series fan games (FNaF Sercuity Breach in scratch, for example)
A Freddy dress up game or bonnie creator would be fine.
So yes, the name Freddy should be allowed.
This “auto NFE” system is also ignoring the fact that Freddy is a common name.

Support. This like blocking the name Jason because it was used in like one horror movie. They should be marking “Fazbear” instead.

Support, this is like filtering the name “Van” or “Bonnie” because it was used in FNAF games. Just so silly.

Annabelle is ranked as the 1470th most popular given name in the United States with an estimated population of 18,397.

Freddy is ranked as the 701st most popular given name in the United States with an estimated population of 61,254

I don't even need to say anything for you guys to know if I support or don't

Nevermind

According to a website i found (marked as not secure so i don't know if i should put it), i found that there are only ~28k people in the US named Freddy, and i bet most of them have no clue what Scratch is. If they are on Scratch, they could just use the name Fred, can they not?

1. What about other countries?
2. The “i bet most of them have no clue what Scratch is” is a terrible argument because you never know.
3. Some people probably would like to be called by their actual name.
