I'm playing on a Mac, this was after the first patch, and I bought the game from here on the site.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anything I can do?
Sounds like something has gotten corrupted in your save, and it's broken the names.dat file that controls the naming in that game.

The easiest way to fix it would be to replace it with a valid names.dat file from another save, by copying it from that folder into the problem one and overwriting the broken names.dat. But it will need to be from a game started with the same game version as the broken save - a newly-created save from after this update won't match properly. If you don't have one, let me know, I can dig through my old saves and find one that should work for you.
