<div dir="ltr">If you are looking for an example name to use that would be relatively "safe" then I would suggest something as simple as Example-Child-Theme ... as the current guidelines stand that name itself would not be accepted and therefore would not be subject to updates from WordPress.org.<br>

While i am preparing to write a guide about child themes, i see hardest part is choosing an example name.<div>For example when i check <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/" target="_blank">http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/</a> there is no "example" or "skeleton" theme.</div>
<div>But i am not sure if there will be any theme with "example" or "skeleton" name in future.</div><div>Is there a safe name list that i can be sure there will never be those names in <a href="http://wordpress.org" target="_blank">wordpress.org</a>?</div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>And while i see this solution for excluding theme from update check:</div><div><a href="http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2009/12/14/excluding-your-plugin-or-theme-from-update-checks/" target="_blank">http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2009/12/14/excluding-your-plugin-or-theme-from-update-checks/</a></div>
<div>Its not working when theme is not activated. </div><div>So if someone named his child theme accidently to a theme that published in <a href="http://wordpress.org" target="_blank">wordpress.org</a>, basically wordpress trying to override that theme if published version is higher.</div>
<div>What is solution in there?</div>
