Now that we have the ability to add unlimited namesets, I expect a lot more name mods to be added, and I'd be surprised if you didn't want to add some or all of them to a league that you're currently running. That's where we're apparently running into a problem - if the re-import names/ethnicities function doesn't work, then you can't add new names/ethnicities to an existing league. And that's definitely a problem.

Thanks. I really wanted to use your American-Ethnic namesets, too, to generate a bunch of Italian-Americans and Irish-Americans and German-Americans with a preset second nationality, but it just doesn't seem like it's going to work the way I wanted.
There's no easy way to just tell the game "take names from this group, and assign Nation_X as a second nationality". It's not set up to do that. Still, after thinking about it for awhile, I thought I had it figured out. I created a clone of each of those countries, assigned your namesets to them, and added them to the US's "second nations" list (with the option to "use names" enabled). I was expecting that 100% of the players created among these second nations groups would use your names, but that didn't seem to be the case. It looked like more half-and-half, where some used yours, and some used the standard US names. Having a German-American guy named Jaime Barrera just wasn't what I was hoping for, y'know?
