It ultimately doesn't matter what's pre banned in the clients because a server can enforce whatever name rules that it likes. This means retail, along with every private server, have their own unique block lists for character names. Even if one passes when the character is made, they can still forcibly rename you after the fact if they don't like it, then add the name you had, to the block list. I think my favorites were the Mages named after bottled water brands, like Aquafina.
