Description:

Updated for Version 2.7.2

First, this mod was a recreation of
https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1373824729
which seems to be discontinued. Afterwards I accessed the original mods file and started mix and matching everything.

Overview

This mod includes

  • Character names
  • Planet names
  • Fleet names
  • Ship class names
  • Ship names
  • Army names

Details

Character names

I followed the rules outlined in this tutorial:
Bugmans Brewery [www.bugmansbrewery.com] which was also done by the original mod.

Imperial rulers get special first and last names.
Leaders get more common first and last names and rarely (5%) the special last names rulers use.
The common last names end with "-son" and "-dottir" (70%), sometimes with "-snev" or "-sniz" (20%).

Planet names
Originally posted by JerreyRough:

Names are based off various locations in the Dwarf realm. They are combined from various first names (i.e. generic first name Skraklaz) and various last names (i.e. water planet only Varr).

Fleet names

These are based off either specific clans or Throngs of various holds.

Ship class names

These are based on dwarf weapon names derived from Warhammer: Vermintide 2

Ship names
Originally posted by JerreyRough:

Following the types of names of the few named battleships/airships/artillery (i.e. The Hammer of Grungni), these are namemd in two ways: Either as "[Ancestor Name]’s X" or "The X of [Ancestor]". Additional lore firendly names and additional ancestor’s added. Military ships draw from the full ship name pool while civilian ship names draw from a smaller ship pool, usually with more defensive names.

Army names

Use dwarven unit names like "Hammerer Throng" and "Slayer Throng".

Special thanks to
