Fantasy Names!

Description
Overhauls the character name list to use fantasy-sounding names!

Overview
  • This mod replaces the game's random names list with a pool of fantasy-sounding names
  • The new names consist of both a first name and a last name
  • The names are all made up by me and the Kenshi community
  • Currently, there are over 100 000 name combinations

Compatibility
  • This mod is compatible with all mods except other name mods
  • Place this mod at the bottom of your list if you are unsure
  • Names of unique recruits are not affected by this mod
  • Characters named by other mods are not affected by this mod

Contributors
The following people from the Kenshi community have contributed additional names to this mod!

Submissions
I would love to receive suggestions for additional names. If a name you suggest is added to this mod, you will be credited.

Rules for name submissions:
  • Made-up or abstract names fit this mod the best
  • Avoid popular real/fictional names (eg. Alice, Gandalf)
  • Avoid names that break immersion (eg. Lionheart, Princess)

Versions
  • v3 - Added more names. Added name contributions from Inawordyes. Total name combinations grew to 136 000
  • v2 - Added more names. Added name contributions from Seanie & Zalo. Total name combinations grew to 100 000
  • v1 - Initial release

I really like the names so far and the huge number of them, but would love to see a version with just first names given the character limit of the portrait window.

OK then very understandable! thanks for the tip!

As far as I can tell, all name mods have to overwrite the same three files to add their names so there can only be one name mod truly active at a time.

But the good news is name mods shouldn't rename already named characters. If you want to use more than one name mod, just rotate their order in your mod list from time to time. The name mod appearing lowest in your list will be the active one.

Can you make a version of the mod that just adds all the names to the currant list, instead of completely replacing them... that why it won't interfere with other name adding mods...
