Automatic ship naming when built at shipyard solved

[Cetshwayo (OP)]

Hey guys new player here.     

I have an issue where in the first game I ever played under 5. 45 I believe it was, when adding multiple ships of the same class to be built by a shipyard, the game generated nice, unique names for those ships.    I believe I used UK empire theme and commander theme.    However, starting a second game under that same game version using the same themes, I no longer get the unique names.    Instead I get Ark Royal 001, Ark Royal 002 etc for ships built of the same class.   

Example, in the first game I had a freighter class called FT Durban.   The first ship produced was called Durban.    The second was called Dar es Salaam.    Don't remember the ones after those two as I built quite a few of them.     The game chose those names.    In the games I started after, it's Durban 001 etc.   

Copying 5. 45 to another folder and updating it to 5. 60 I get the same problem on the first game I start.    I did delete the previous games though as I thought they wouldn't work anyway due to the database updates and changes in the patch.   

Tried searching the forums but it seems I can't find a thread with a similar issue.   

Any ideas?

Thanks

EDIT - Solved.

Class Design screen, page five (DAC/Rank/Info), "Name type" drop-down menu. Set it.

Thank you very much for your speedy reply!

Works like a charm.   Don't know how I managed to do that in my first game.

It might have been set by default in an earlier game version, but off by default in the current version. Possibly.
