@psykro Sure or read it in the code

/wp-content/plugins/plugin-directory/shortcodes/class-upload-
handler.php#L134
> Your chosen plugin name - %1$s - contains the restricted term "%2$s" and
cannot be used to begin your permalink or display name. Per the
requirements of trademark owners and law, we disallow the use of certain
terms in ways that are infringing and/or misleading. In order to proceed
with this submission, you must change the %3$s line in your main plugin
file and readme to end with "-%2$s" instead. Once you\'ve finished, you
may upload the plugin again. If you feel this is in error, such as you
legally own the trademarked term, please email us at %4$s and explain why.
