Random Townies NPCs - Do You Change Their Names?

I don't change their names but sometimes I've been known to go in and change their outfit :wink:

Same. Sometimes I'll keep their names and edit their outfits especially if I feel I'll save them for later. Lol

if i am editing randomized townies i will usually change their name too.
but i don't really edit townies much anymore. the game just keeps generating new ones, there is no use.

99.9% of them are obliterated, so I don't bother changing. Those who are kept also keep their names.

I generally evict and delete them all from the worlds so I can create my own families to place in... lol So it doesn't really matter to me.

I only change the ones that don't make sense to me. Like the random that generated with the. Name Myk. I changed it to Mike

When I have them marry one of my sims, I look up their surnames to see what culture they're from and then name their kids accordingly.

When it comes to re-naming pre-mades sims? i leave them alone.
When it comes to marriage? MC assigns those names at the start of each new day in game. On occasion i set the marriage name of the female sim which would of been done by MC anyway.

When there is nothing going on outside of marriage though i don't change any names, i consider it a bit disrespectful to co-opt others work and try to make them mine by changing those names. Besides that the names they have is unique to each sim and to change that is like taking away bacon and eggs from a fry up in the mornings and replacing those with liver pate and mushed carrots, it doesn't fit together or look right.

besides pre-mades and your own sims, the game generates random townies, but i don't bother with those either.

Yes, I like to rename the townies in the same “style” that I name my own created sims. It’s a consistency thing.

No, i just delete them :#
