NPC/Townie Name List?
Hello! So I had a question. I am hoping to find a list of all of the names possible by the in-game name generator for The Sims 4. My friend can't buy the game because she is worried certain names wil...
It is not when making sims. It is NPCs and Townies. She can't change those names.
Are you talking about if you add an NPC or Townie to your family? Because this is outside of that. It isn't that she wants to change names either. She just wants to keep from seeing a name in general. She has OCD and cannot see or hear certain names, otherwise it will send her into her rituals or a panic attack. She wants to avoid that, but play the game.
Hi @trash2017
do you need lastNames only ? The file is really huge and has lots of different languages.
These is G lastNames for english base game
There's other sections though that arent' as easy to c/p as EA didn't bother to sort them anymore. If you PM me the name you're concerned about, I can check for that.
Is there a guide to find name files in the game myself? I have no problem looking for it and finding it myself. I actually need first names. Not last. ☹️ Sorry, I probably should have specified.
When the game creates a new sim on its own, it will randomly choose a name for them from these huge lists of names it has available. Once the sim is created, you can modify the sim and their name in CAS. But that won't stop the problem of seeing them in the first place.
Hmmm... if it's only a few names, I suppose someone could make a mod to remove just those names from the game. It shouldn't be hard if the name lists are in the tuning files. But as @crinrict said, there are a LOT of them in there.
