Name file with only foreign names ?

Skywalker76 · 05-03-2005, 08:34 AM

Is there a name file, which only consists of foreign name aka. Hispanic, Japan, European etc..I want to use it for my parallel fictional world.
Also, is there a name file, which has mostly north american names and only few foreign names ? I don't mean old historic name files, which don't have any hispanic or japanese names at all but a file which is 90% American and 10% foreign.

Thanks

Why not use Dave Williams Originator? There are quite a few name files with it and I have added a few from other sources. You can select percentages of the players you want. If you want 90% US/Canada and 10% other countries you can put the pct by the selection and it works well..... I have even created some states files to use within the originator....

It is in the Utilities section at OOTPDOWNLOADCENTER.com You will need the Orginator and Origins dat files. I have also converted some of the names files found on the site to be used with the originator and have created locations and names files for other countries. If you want any of these and instructions on how to implement them into the originator let me know. The advantage of using the originator over standard name files is that you can only use 3 at a time in a league, with the originator you can have 20 different origins/names. The disadvantage is that you need to run the orginator at the start of each season before the draft....(takes about 1 second)...

If you could give me some of these created name files and instructions on how to use them it would be great.
