This mod looks really exciting!! Can't wait to try it 8) Just to clarify, if I go into CAS and make a new sim and click randomize a couple times, will a new name show up?

Or, will the names just show up on mailmen/maids/etc.?

It will show up both in CAS and on NPCs

Thank you for this mod. I'm playing the dutch version of the Sims and really hate the names. When my Sims got married to a towny I always went to the town hall to change the name. With this mod this won't be necessary anymore!
THANKS!

Hi, I just have to say that thank you so much for this mod. I have a Finnish language version, and while I love my language dearly, I tend to make my sims with English or other foreign names because the world of the game is so American-like. However, my game is fond of giving everyone Finnish names, especially really really stupid ones (most of them I've NEVER heard before, seriously). I used to have a mod to name all newborn babies, but my computer is getting older and slower and it's slowing the game down way too much.

I haven't tried it out yet, but I'm hoping it'll work (if it doesn't, I'll update you on that). It's going to be a bit sad having EVERYONE have English names, but it's so much better than the alternative. It's not like any combination of international names would suddenly start looking at what the sims look like or what their last name is before assigning some silly name to them (like a Chinese name to a Japanese sim, or a French name to a Swedish sim), so including more ethnic names wouldn't have improved anything in my opinion. Awesome work, thank you!

Btw is it possible to modify custom name lists? Or really difficult to make your own? In case I wanted to customize my game a bit more or something. Thanks

It is not difficult! You only need a simple program caled Stubble. You can change almost every text in game there

Thank you for this!

Does this also replace the Chinese, Egyptian and French names list, or just the home neighbourhood list? I'd rather have these names instead of EA's, but I also want to keep the ethnic naming of World Adventures neighbourhoods.

The ethnic names in vacation worlds won't be changing

This mod seems great and it's exactly what my game needs at this moment (I'm about to make a gothic legacy of sorts) but sadly I can't get it to work. Nor do any other name replacement mods I've tried work. I'm not sure if I'm doing everything right. I put the package file into my Mods>Packages folder and delete scriptCache but the names won't show up in my game. I'm using Awesomemod and some of Twallan's mods, like StoryProgression and MasterController, if it matters. My game version is Finnish, as was someone else's commenting on this, but they didn't inform whether they got this to work in their game so I'm assuming they did. I know it's been said this mod might not work with every game version but I'd still like to know if there's something I might be doing to prevent it from working.

EDIT: I got another name replacement mod to work partially; it doesn't replace all names, occasionally it throws in some non-replaced names and yes, it happens with normal townies who are supposed to spawn with the new names. They mostly spawn with the mod's first name and a Finnish last name or the other way around. So I'm guessing it's this mod that doesn't work for me? Or could it still be something I did wrong?

Sorry hun, but that mod is working for english version only. When I was making that, I didn't knew how to change the language...

Alright, too bad for me then, I guess. The other mod which I got to work partially was yours as well, and it works well enough since now at least most of the townies spawn with bearable names, haha. I don't mind changing a name every once in a while, at least it's definitely better than changing the name for every single newly spawned sim.

So, thank you for the mods, I would've enjoyed trying out this one but it's okay, you made my game better anyway. ^^

I like this mod, thank you very much for making it and putting it for download. I tend to make very "dramatic" names for my sims, like Logan and Bernadette, so these names fit right in to my little personal world. :-) In fact, one of my premade sims I've created and often reuse is named Bronwyn (heard it in a show) so I was very surprised to see it randomly turn up on a townie sim!

Please make the mod for the Italian names

No more ghetto names! yay!

Thank you!!!
I like these names, but I love your own Common English names mod.
Would you ever consider making them into one single mod, please?

I really liked the mod, but I didn't want to replace the base names, is there any way to merge with the existing names?
