Shadow Name Generator

Description
So, you somehow aquired a shadow crew member, or several, but they're all named ??? and its kinda confusing and sad right? Well worry no more with the Shadow Name Generator! All new shadows you'll encounter will have a name.

This mod basically changes the shadownamegen file to produce a name based on the anchientgreek name assets in the name folder. If you dont understand what that means, it basically uses the same system avians, apex and floran use to generate names but with a previously unused file! It can produce some pretty weird but fun names this way.
All names are gender neutral as Im not going to go through the effort of doing that.

This mod is server safe, but shadows produced on a server will follow whatever that server uses to make names (So servers without this will have ??? shadows).
It should also be safe to subscribe/unsubribe from as much as you'd like, but only shadows spawned while using this will have the names.

That's a bit beyond my skill set

Well considering the fact that these shadow people dont actually speak to non shadow people, i feel like giving players the option of giving them custom names would be more immersive.

I guess I could see hows its immersion breaking, but I personally feel like ??? is more immersion breaking.
If you have an idea for a better name system that'd be sweet.

A bit immersion breaking, but i can see how someone with many shadow crew members would need something like this.

There is a workshop mod to allow them to work but I just spawn them in like a weenie.
