Naming policies are a set of rules that ensure groups are named appropriately and without exposing any business details or personal information. They can be configured using the new Exchange Admin Center (EAC) from Microsoft 365. When you create groups using the classic EAC from Exchange Server, the group naming policy is ignored and not applied to the group name. This can be overridden by using Exchange Online PowerShell to create or rename a distribution group for which you want the policy to be applied for.

New-DistributionGroup -Name <Group Name> -IgnoreNamingPolicy
