I developed a private homebrew of a trademarked character from another franchise for use in my private campaign and recently it's display name was changed. The underlying name hasn't changed so it is still searchable under its original name and the original name appears in the editor. Unfortunately, this also means that I can't change it and it is stuck with this name I did not give to it. I am wondering if this was a Mod of some kind changing my private homebrew. How can I get this changed back?
Well, at the time the display name wouldn't change at all, but the name in the editor was correct so there was nothing to change. In the past day the issue resolved itself, something to be thankful for I guess. Hopefully it won't pop up again. Thanks for your help!
I’m astonished that there is another shuckle named Rick around here lol. And nope, as I said before, it just fixed itself after a few days and never went back. I’ve been waiting for it to happen to any one of my other home brews but if it has, I haven’t caught it.

Hello,
I developed a private homebrew of a trademarked character from another franchise for use in my private campaign and recently it's display name was changed. The underlying name hasn't changed so it is still searchable under its original name and the original name appears in the editor. Unfortunately, this also means that I can't change it and it is stuck with this name I did not give to it. I am wondering if this was a Mod of some kind changing my private homebrew. How can I get this changed back?
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Was it private or published?

It was private, I never published it because it is trademarked. It originally was Shuckle, but now it’s called Rick.
That’s really weird. If you change the name back again does it stay that way?

This exact same thing happened to me! Did you ever discover a solution?
