Even More Elite: Dangerous Star Names
Add two tons of star names from Elite: Dangerous[www.elitedangerous.com] to your next galaxy.
Not compatible with the regular version. This version has more names from Elite, primarily the ones named after real constellations. Only use one.
GitHub here[github.com].
Star Names:
29000+ star names used in Elite, including:
- All named systems, minus obvious star catalog systems and proc-gen systems.
- All procedurally generated sector names.
- 20+ POIs from the game and the Galactic Exploration Catalog[edastro.com].
Nebulae:
100+ nebulae names from the game[elite-dangerous.fandom.com] and POIs from the Galactic Exploration Catalog[edastro.com].
Black Holes:
15+ Black hole names from the galactic regions[elite-dangerous.fandom.com] and POIs from the Galactic Exploration Catalog[edastro.com].
Asteroid Prefixes:
250+ asteroid prefixes from real-life star catalogs[en.wikipedia.org] used in the game.

Not achievement compatible.
Load order doesn’t matter.
Compatible with everything (unless someone uses the same file names…).
Save game compatible (only affects system generation, 99% of which is done on game start). Safe to remove.
Elite uses a lot of real-life data, so many, many of these overlap with real stars, constellations, and nebulae.
I have removed the obvious star catalog names because I thought names with only a prefix and number (e.g.: HIP 22460, 2MASS J00011398-2925182) are boring and unreadable. The prefixes have been repurposed as asteroid prefixes.
If you don’t want any system names with numbers, or the proc-gen names, or those that use real-life constellations (e.g. 63 G. Canis Majoris, CN Lacertae) see the regular version.
