Some common types of wine (for that wet navy feel).

A combined list of all the system names and commander names from the various Earth culture themes. I want to play a truly united humanity. And also never run out of names...

Would it be okay if I combined them all and then posted them here? Is there a limit to the amount of names that can be in a single theme?

Also, the ability to rename a system or planet using the same list of themes you get when selecting a name for a ship class would be nice. Or having a separate naming list for planets and moons within a system.

You can add additional naming themes for your commanders in the race information window. There doesn't appear to be a limit on how many themes you add so all you need to do is keep clicking.

I do the same thing, and it does get a bit old having to add ~20 or so naming themes every time I restart (which is a problem I suffer from all too often)

A list of colours/synonyms for colours - all are one word to avoid sounding like paint swatches, and might work well with suffixes for ship names.

Quote from: Son_of_Orion link=topic=10472. msg127780#msg127780 date=1587779828
Here's a full count of countries and/or ethnicities I've included so far: Albanian, Armenian, Belgian, Bengali, Bosnian, Burmese, Congolese, Danish, Estonian, Ethiopian, Filipino, Hungarian, Indonesian, Irish, Israeli, Khmer, Kurdish, Latvian, Malay, Maori, Nigerian, Norwegian, Pashtun, Serbo-Croatian, Sinhalese, Swahili and Vietnamese.     

Is there any way to add these manually? I really miss the Hungarian names for RP purposes. . .

A quick list of ancient Egyptian gods, 43 of them for now.

I tried to put more important/better known gods first. Let me know of errors/typos/important omissions and I'll update the file.
As soon as/if I give up my Aurora 1.9.5 game and stick with 1.11 for good, I may replace it with a longer list.

Removed the alphabetical list. Should have tested it first: Aurora arranges them A->Z automatically.

So, I have fixed the Hungarian commander names (the one that was provided by Son_of_Orion above), so they are ready to use already.

- Fixed dozens of spelling errors
- Removed the tons of duplicates
- Removed some strange/rare/nonexistent names and added more commonly used ones
- Fixed the missing/wrong accents
- Converted the files from ANSI to UTF-8 so every special character is appearing correctly in the game

Enjoy!

The dwarf theme was added in a form that was usable for ship hulls, but not as a commander theme.  I shall post the commander theme here.
