Re: [FIXED] Sims lose their first and last names

I have yet to experience the vanishing names issue. Although it seems quite serious, I'm not even sure the two problems are directly related, but I suppose it's possible. In so far as why EA hasn't noticed? That's anyone's guess. All I can suggest is to please back up all your save files. Even those that you've already messed with. (There's always the possibility to recover from an earlier save) I don't guess this problem will be resolved any time soon, so it's better to be safe than sorry. This problem may well be "simaggedon" if not addressed quickly.

    I just noticed this as well, Catarina Lynx had married one of the Munch brothers in my save and pre patch was saved as Catarina Munch. After the patch her name reverted to Catarina Lynx again. I’m going to look through that save and see if there are more (I assume there will be). I’m just glad I found this report before opening my really old save.

    @Kita5399I'm having the exact same problem like you!
    I was wondering why all my sims, that were married had their original last name back! I hope EA will fix that asap :/
    Did anyone change them back and saw their sims permanently having their name changed or did it change back to their OG last names?
    This just came to my mind which I haven't investigated yet!
