I think it is because of the weird characters in your name?

The OP stated that himself..

I'm not sure there is much you can do about it.

Maybe admins will change/let you change your account? Had to go and make a weird name didn't you

Its the characters in your name. Not all web browsers at the moment support that character so they won't include it.

Only way to fix that is get a name change without an unrecognised character. However the admins don't usually give name changes out to normal users anymore. I'd say its worth asking though.

 

If you're not able to use the website, I'm sure the admins would alter the last two letters to "AY" (that's what it looks like?). I would say to PM them, but I guess you'll have to wait until one of them sees this thread.

It may just be a case of having those characters added to the whitelist. There was a period a while back where people were creating impostors etc with Greek letters or something like that, so I believe action was taken to disallow the use of random characters.

Try PM'ing a technical admin. Govind, Matthew etc.

Weird, I'd contact an admin about this.
