📋 About This Mod
This tiny esp-free mod simply gives the generic settlers in Goodsprings and Primm unique names.
There was originally scripting to change the names of the bighorners in Goodsprings, but regardless of method, they would all end up with the same name, so the naming was extended from just Goodsprings to Primm instead to round out the request.
Requirements:
JIP LN, xNVSE
Installation:
Regular installation.
Please endorse and vote if you appreciate the mod.
If updating from V1 to V2, I recommend that you replace rather than merge the installation, but it's ultimately not important. Updating is compatible with ongoing saves.
Permissions:
Do whatever.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Esp-free design is a huge plus for load order management
- Tiny mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat
- Recent update means it's likely compatible with current setups
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers two towns, so don't expect a game-wide overhaul
- Made on commission, so it's a niche request—might not match everyone's taste
For Fallout: New Vegas players who want a bit more life in Goodsprings and Primm without overhauling the whole game. If you're a roleplayer or just tired of 'Settler' names, this is a quick fix. Skip if you want broader naming or gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic and limited.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's esp-free, just drop the files into your Data folder and enable via the launcher or mod manager.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, it should auto-detect—just deploy and you're good.
- No compatibility issues expected, but always check if you have other mods that alter those settlers.
