The culture/language you are unfamiliar with is Gallician; it's a Celtic language from Northwest Iberia during Roman times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallaecian_language

Maybe you can add this in the description somewhere now that you are familiar with it.

Cheers lad

Made an update of this for RimWorld 1.1

Hope it helps anyone!

1.1?

Ooga.

Boooo! Hack! Add more names that I like.

@Entil'Zha "Tansy" - wow, naming someone after a plant that's been used to cancel unwanted pregnancies is ... zynism to say the least.

Well actually the Native American name translations in the app I use can be VERY diverse and interesting, such as Tehya which translates to "predous" which, well, honestly I can't find a definition for "predous", and then there is Tansy which translates to "name of a flower", then there are the more *NORMAL* names like Kuwanyamtiwa which means "beautiful badger going over the hill" and Magena which means "moon".

There really would be plenty of the sort of names Rimworld ships with, they'd just be in a different language but then their meaning would be lost on us for story telling character building purposes.

Still though I love the concept of this mod, I just wish it had some tribal names from the other continents as well.

oh, yeah nicknames, jesus i need more sleep, sorry for my stupidity

That comment was of course referring to vanilla tribal pawns' actual names, not their nicknames.

i have one question, what do you mean by "nothing more than my own unfamiliarity with the cultures" i dont know much about native type people, but i dont think they were named, "crocidile" "alligator" "hippo" "sexton" and the other weird names the game uses, i dont think indians would have named their child hippo, or sexton

This sounds cool, looking forward to an update for trying it out. Hey you sound like you'd really apreciate the mobile app FANG, FAntasy Name Generator, best I've seen and the Native American names even include translated meanings! It's fantastic

hi! I'm a two-spirit anishinaabe woman, so I wanted to say that I find this mod very respectful and sweet. honestly, thank you for the consideration put into this, and I appreciate the effort and research done. this is the first mod I've ever thought to rate, and obviously it's a thumbs up.

Update from b19 version:

- Tribal factions and settlements will now have names consistent with the style of the pawns' names.
