Why do sims speak Simlish but have English names?

Riddle me this... Bob Pancakes, Bella Goth, Meadow Thorne.. All English names yet sims don't speak English!? :o
  • Because Simlish is easier to code for the speech worldwide. I wouldn't mind Sims having different names than just English ones and more cultures. You can actually copy and paste different names with the accents on them. I've done it with French names before. I actually would be curious if it worked for language characters too like Chinese and Japanese.
  • -shrugs- Its the same in japan some people have English names but speak Japanese same other parts of the world English names and speak other languages. is the same in sims.
