Can I choose rude names for my Pokémon?

In the older Pokémon games my brother and I always tried to come up with the most weird Pokémon-names. For example we chose something like "poo-toilet". Will others be able to see them and can you get in trouble if you pick a name that offends others? Can other people see the name if your Pokémon is in a gym?
Best Answer
They do seem to filter out some things, I couldn't put some names I wanted in there.
