Why was my name changed?

Tekken

after days of not being able to log in because of the "invalid information" error. I finally log in to see my main character has been renamed from Tekken, To 72Tekken87 anyone know why?

I had the same issue, but only on the forum (not in game). My username for the beta forum was the same as my game one, but somehow during the migration, it turned into this weird thing. I sent in a support email and never received a reply.

It will be because Tekken is another games company's intellectual property/trademark, so it's not an allowed character name.

That doesnt explain the numbers unless he had to rename before logging in.

I would imagine it was forcibly changed for him.
