I have a friend (a girl) whose first name is Tiger. They would not allow it so she had to get creative.Seriously, how is restricting the name Tiger helping Facebook in any way?

Digg != News. Digg == Social Bookmarking. Don't expect everything you find here to be news.

could have been a new filter or a new name to the filter list that didn't apply retroactively? Or those people didn't need publicity to get exempt.

It's fun to comment on stuff when you don't know what the hell you're talking about! Her family name is not ようだ, it IS in fact よだ.
