    Default Habbo UK, Lowest character limit for names?

    So i was just browsing the other Hotels, which i rarely do and noticed something a bit silly.

    Habbo UK allow you to have 13 characters/letters when registering your name, i've always accepted this as standard. But i've just noticed that the other hotels are allowed 20+ o_O?

    Why would they have different limits for different hotels? There surely can't be a good reason for us having the least, if anything we should have the most - considering we are one of the most popular and probably have the most usernames registered. A Greater character limit would make for more choice of new usernames.

    maybe in there language there names could be longer?
    example: name in english could be like bob, but in finnish could be twice as long just to mean bob.. if you get me? LOL.

    Because they have names like Mohammed Kazukizzy Sanjif so they need more space.

    I Laughed at the examples of foreign people having longer names.

    @Mint - Everyone has long names when you use your full name like you gave as an example.. But the majority of people don't use their full name as their username so no, it surely wouldn't be because of that.

    @Transcripts - Twice as long as bob? That's only 6 letters.. lol, most british names are around that length.

    Every language has long and short names, we have alot of long names actually. For example; Catherine, William, Elizabeth, Cassandra and Charlotte which are all common names here.
