01 INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION

"Everyone has a Name"

Real Names automatically assigns a lore-friendly name to anonymous NPCs.

This is an SSE conversion and update to the original Real Names (which was an update to Jaxonz Real Names),which gives an identity to otherwise generic inhabitants of Skyrim. Ever wonder if it's the same Whiterun Guard you're seeing in the Bannered Mane every night, drinking away his sorrows? Wonder no more! With this mod, almost every NPC is given a lore-friendly moniker based on their gender and race. Even some monsters, such as dragons, get a name of their own! It accomplishes this all in a lightweight, clean fashion that's highly configurable to your own personal preferences.

02 MCM OPTIONS AND CONFIGURATION

This edition of Real Names trades out the . INI method of configuration for a vastly expanded MCM. As such, the . INI file no longer exists and jaxonzconsoleplugin is not needed to use this mod.

• []Strangers Mode: Optionally prevent the automatic renaming of NPCs until the player interacts with them directly (e.g. dialogue).
  • []Several options are available to determine how generated names prioritize Titles and Surnames over Epithets.
    • []Allows disabling of renaming monsters and/or dead NPCs.
      • []Each race has independent options which can be adjusted.
        • []Allows for an NPC to be assigned a name which is not typical of their Race. By default, this is disabled for all races, but it is not unheard of: Brand-Shei was a Dark Elf raised by Argonians, and Lucien Lachance is an Imperial (despite having a very Breton sounding name).
          • []An option for Dark Elves allows them to be given traditional Ashlander names.
            • []An option for Khajiit allows configuration of honorific prefices and suffices.
              • []An option for Nords allows enabling of patronymic/matronymic names.
                • []An option for Orcs allows configuration of the Clan name prefix.
                  • []Easy access and intuitive UI for modifying the lists used to generate random names. 56 lists with 378 editable entries each.
                    • An Exceptions method which prevents named NPCs from being renamed inadvertently.
