Community Working Area - Turian namelist
Hi guys !

In order to improve the Turian namelist, i'm opening this topic so you can help me with your ideas and research. Thanks for those who might help me ! You will be added to the credits.

The actual Turian namelist is made with the Roman namelist mod, and doesn't fit well at all. I'd like to create a better namelist with real ME Turian names and invented names that sound turian.

Please, list the names with no comma between them and no feed line, just a space to separate them, so they will be easier to merge into the code.

Here are the differents names categories to improve. Specify the category of your names before listing them in your post please :


1) MALE FIRSTNAMES

2) FEMALE FIRSTNAMES

3) LASTNAMES

4) PLANETS NAMES (do not include Palaven)
4) a) Generic names (if you don't know the specificity of the planet)
4) b) Desert worlds
4) c) Arid worlds
4) d) Tropical worlds
4) e) Continental worlds
4) f) Gaia worlds
4) g) Ocean worlds
4) h) Tundra worlds
4) h) Artic worlds


5) SHIPS NAMES
5) a) Generic names (if the ship type doesn't matter)
5) b) Corvette
5) c) Constructor
5) d) Colonizer
5) e) Science
5) f) Destroyer
5) g) Cruiser
5) h) Battleship
5) h) Transport

6) FLEETS NAMES

7) ARMY NAMES
7) a) Defense army
7) b) Assault army

6) Default. The official Turian Navy prefix is PFS, like the Alliance's SSV. Also, and because with the Asari the namelist is already done, the Asari Navy prefix is AML.

I know this isn't in the order you desire, but this is related to the Army/Fleet naming rather than individual names. The Mass Effect 3 War Assets offer a lot of insight into all species naming practices, especially in their respective militaries.

For the Turians this seems to indicate that they follow this pattern:

fleet_names = {
random_names = {
}
sequential_name = "%O% Fleet"
}

army_names = {
generic = {
sequential_name = "%0% Regiment"
}

assault_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Legion"
}

psionic_army = {
sequential_names = "%O% Cabals"

gene_warrior_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Blackwatch
}

They also use Flortilla, but that is most likely just a small specialised fleet. If Stellaris actually pushed for more tactics than just a death-stack then maybe having more specific names based on fleet size could be a possibility. There are other types of armies in Stellaris, but I am unsure how they should be worded.

EDIT: (Also with the BlackWatch, they probably shouldn't could as gene_warrior_army but we don't have any form of intelligence/special forces yet. Sucks for the Salarians especially! Poor STG!)

If you want to get more mileage out of those canon names that are fairly sparse, like the female first names, you can split the sylables up and mix and match, like so:

Ny-reen Pa-van Shas-tina Abru-das Vet-ra Oc-ta

Nyvan Nytina Nydas Nyra Nyta
Pareen Patina Padas Para Pata
Shasreen Shasvan Shasdas Shasra Shasta
Abrureen Abruvan Abrutina Abrura Abruta
Ocreen Ocvan Octina Ocdas Ocra

You could use this generator along with the above suggestions to help you put some names into a list http://fantasynamegenerators.com/turian-names.php#.WF7uG1OLSUl it also has other random name generators to be used for the other races.

I personally prefer to name most of the armies in a generic way, and save the species specific names for Gene Warrior armies (Special Tasks Group for Salarians, Blackwatch for Turians, Special Intervention Unit for Batarians, Commandos for Asari, N7 Special Ops Team for Humans, Battlemasters for Krogan, Armatures for Geth and I'll have to think about Collectors):

defense_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Frontier Division" (as are named the colonial garrison divisions we know in games)
}

assault_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Marine Division" (Humans, Quarians, Salarians, Batarians and Turians) "%O% Huntress Division" (Asari) "%O% Warrior Division" (Krogan) "%O% Platform Division" (Geth). Turians also use the Division as military unit of formation in their miltary; a Legion seems to be formed by many divisions gathered together.
}

slave_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Conscripted Convicts" (I don't know about Geth in this one)
}

robotic_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% VI Auxiliary Mechs Unit"
}

android_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% VI Autonomous Mechs Unit" (not AI. Organics do not trust AI since the Geth uprising, while Geth themselves are already AI, so its better this is VI for them too)
}

psionic_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Biotic Company" (Humans, Batarians, Krogan, Quarians) "%O% Cabal" (Turians; "Cabals" means several units) "%O% Biotic Specialists" (Asari) "%O% Engineer Company" (Salarians. Biotics are virtually unknown in the salarian military and they're not used as cannon fodder but assigned to the intelligence services) "%O% Prime Company" (Geth)
}

xenomorph_army = {
sequential_name = "%O% Trained Varren" ("%O% Hoppers" for Geth)
}

All known armies of Mass Effect species appears to use Garrisons at planets, while their armies are composed by (from smallest to largest) Platoons, Companies, Battalions, Regiments, Brigades and Divisions. We also know that VI auxiliary units are extensively use (especially by the Humans and the Elcor). There are a few exceptions to this rule (I'm thinking in the Hanar, the Elcor and possibly the Volus, because they're not war-like suited peoples, especially the Hanar and the Volus), and most of this units don't fit at all with the the Collectors.



About the Fleets:

fleet_names = {
random_names = {
}
sequential_name = "%O% Fleet" (Alliance, Cerberus, Turians, Asari, Salarians, Krogan, Batarians and Geth) "%O% Flotilla" (Quarians)
}

Once again I don't know about Collectors, so I'd put "%O% Fleet" for them too.
