Resolved, kind of...

I was able to successfully register when I switched the name from XXX.YYYY to XXXYYYY (without the dot).  Are periods not supposed to be valid characters for name registration?  The current tooltip seems to suggest that periods are valid:

"Only lowercase alphanumeric characters, dots, and dashes.  Must start with a letter and cannot end with a dash."

The dot is reserved for sub-account names where xxx.yyy.zzz is a sub account of yyy.zzz which is a sub account of zzz.  But you need to create zzz before you can make yyy.zzz which must exist before you can make xxx.yyy.zzz.

How did you resolve this?  I get the same error and still can't register my account.  Is punctuation not allowed for account names (i.e. periods without spaces)?

Edit: For the record, I checked with blockchain_get_account and it does not appear to exist yet

Only lowercase a-z0-9 and '-' and it may not start with 0-9 or '-' and may not end in '-'

Did you get this working? You can verify if an account already exists with "blockchain_get_account nameofaccount"

I'm doing it right without using spaces or capital letters,i've tried to rename the account and register with a new name ,but still getting an error "RPC Server Error: In method 'wallet_rename_account': Assert Exception (10)"

Hello!  You might be trying to register a name that already exists on the blockchain, or an incorrect name containing spaces or capital letters.

The command line interface error message is a bit more specific, the GUI wallet errors are not very helpful I'm afraid.
