Occidental names: from Abby to Zoey

(1/2) > >>

LordShame:
I recently realized that the Japanese names for random girls were kind of a minor irritant. Not because they're not beautiful names, but simply because I have dificulty keeping track of them. I guess my brain's just not wired for it. It's even harder now that the girl list can be sorted and I can't rely on their order anymore.

So I went through babynames.com and picked out a bunch of mostly-western girl names, 463 to be exact. It's about half the default name file's size, but there's much less "Nijika/Nijiko/Nijimi/Nijino/Nijiyo" in it, if you know what I mean.  ;)

Of course, it's all personal taste, and there might be some dissonnance on account of all the Japanese-style art in the game, but hey, if you're interested, there you go. Just open your "Resources\Data\RandomGirlNames.txt" file in a text editor and paste in the contents of the "names.txt" file I've attached below. You can leave the default names as well if you want to. The files are simple text with each name on a single line so it should be hard to mess this up.

sgb:
This is extremely welcome.  I'm going to mix the two files together and trim the overly similar names, giving the best of both worlds.

sgb:
Here's a combined and trimmed names file.  Basically I went through and deleted most of the nearly identical names, names that were too awkward for me to pronouce, names that didn't really fit at all (there were some obvious stripper names, like 'Candy' and such; nobody names their kid Candy even in the world of Whoremaster  :o ), and names I just flat out didn't like (A matter of opinion of course, but too bad it's my file).  I'd guesstimate the net result is 75% of Lordshame's new list, and about 25% of the original list.  It's been tested and verified to be working.  As always, backup your old file in case you don't like it.

Fstop:
I will download your file and add the name Candy until I get a spawn called Candy and of course make her a "dancer"

Short for "Candace?"
