Special characters in League of Legends username
I would like to change my name and instead of it being 'MoZed', let's say, I'd like it to be 'ΜοZed'. You might ask me what's the difference so I'll answer that now. The 'Mo' in the first name are typed with English characters while in the second one with Greek ones.
Long story short, I would like to put some Greek characters in my name.
According to this article I should be able to do so, since I'm on the EUW server, but for some reason every time I try to I either get the error "Unfortunately your desired name is not available.", even though I checked and none has the one I want, or "Your desired name has too many characters." even though it doesn't exceed any limits.
This article even though it's less than 6 months old, it doesn't apply on League anymore? Am I doing something wrong or should I ask Riot for some help?

This extra data exceeds the maximum name length.
