Description
This mod changes name generation at a number of points:

Outlander pawn - replaced with various firstnames/surnames, including fictional ones (GoT, Star Trek, Dune, Godfather, etc) - now with nicknames, hyphenated surnames, etc.
Outlander settlement - retains original names, adds various fictional cities and additional name generation from new pawn surnames and some prefixes/suffixes
Outlander faction - retains original names, adds various similar ones generated from the new pawn surnames

Tribal pawn - retains original names, adds Amerindian names and fictional tribal names as well
Tribal Settlement - no change at this time
Tribal faction - replaced with North American/Mexican tribe names
(Compatible with Nahuatl Tribal Names)

No changes to Pirate or Empire at this time.

No assemblies or weirdness; entirely vanilla. RulePackDefs, text files, and patches.

Name mod compatibility:

Nahuatl Tribal Names - compatible, load this mod after
NamesGalore - compatible, load this mod after (adds my names into the NamesGalore pools)

Generally speaking, my changes overwrite the existing namers in a brute force manner, so this could affect other name mods. At the moment, last one loaded wins. I may try to improve my patching so as to coexist better.

I whipped this up for personal use, amusement, and for the heck of it - but I thought it might also be amusing and/or useful as a reference for others.

I'll take a look at NamesGalore as well and see what I can do there. The more names the better, as you say!

I see. Names Galore already has an insane amount of names but having even more would be cool.

Outlander name is replaced completely by my own ruleset, so you won't see NamesGalore names there ... as for Nahuatl Tribal Names, it appears we both modify the Tribal namer directly, so for the moment, last one loaded wins. I am working on an update that will detect Nahuatl Tribal Names and adjust accordingly (as that is a very cool mod) ... thanks for the question.

Is this compatible with Names Galore and Nahuatl Tribal Names?

Thanks for this, I was getting tired of getting dozens of tribals with the same name every single game.
