Please describe the patch or change you made. After installing Cottage Living and/or after the July 2021 patch installed (I did both at once).
Very odd bug--newly randomized townies are spawning with only a first name, and no last name. This has only occurred immediately after downloading Cottage Living and the July 2021 patch. As you can see in the pictures, the townies only have a first name when displayed in Live Mode, Travel With... and the relationship panel. When I used "Edit in CAS" the townies also only have a first name in their info panel (only 3 screenshots were allowed, or else I would have included a screenshot of that as well). I did have skin and eye replacers but have removed them. I have no script mods installed.
