I started threads on this very topic in both the main forum and the bug report forum. The silence was deafening.
Hey, at least you figured out the workaround quickly. It took me two whole days of breaking my teeth on the non-working re-import feature and unsuccessfully messing around with the dat files (BTW...never mess with those) before it finally occurred to me to look in a simpler direction.
Sorry to say, but the current state of the re-import names/ethnicities feature makes performing any type of fictional historical sim, historical sim with fictional elements, or any type of simulation where names and ethnicities evolve or change over time impossible. After all, immersion is everything in an historical simulation. Being stuck in a static environment where the names and people will never change as they did and continue to do IRL kills that immersion dead in its tracks.
