Chinese Factions Expanded Name Patch

Description
For English-language users of Chinese Factions Expanded. In the original mod, some of the names were literally translated, and contained words from the faction name list, which often made them less like names and more like descriptors. Removes literal overtranslation and 'object words' from the names, fixes name formatting, and also adds more names. Names backtranslated with DeepL and supplanted with syllables from 'most common Chinese names' lists.

Chinese name order has been kept as per the original mod, firstly because I think this is now editorial standard, and also the game tends to magically choose the correct name for the nickname in around 80% of cases.

(I only changed the pawn names, and not the deity or faction names.)

@OdysseyLotus - great, I'll check it out! I think I got most of the common syllables covered though. And would love to see more Mongolian names. I haven't been able to play much with the Mughal mod yet.

I don't see why it wouldn't, but I haven't tested it

Does this Mod work in V1.3 ?

On the other hand, you are free to use the Chinese names that I have in my Male Maru mod. I'm going to update with the new names that I pulled later.

Damn, you beat me to the punch lol, I was actually fixing up my Chinese names in my Maru mod to use for this since I saw your complaint in the comment section. Maybe I'll work on the Mongolian names instead

(at least the fan translation pack. I dunno about the people doing the translation for the new version of the base mod)

Haha. I probably could do a little bit, because the actual person doing the translating is also using DeepL
