Watching the videos I wanted to suggest a nice score or so of names that would be found in Medieval Germany, some of non-Germanic origin but that would still be present. This is also to diversify even further:
1) Alardus
2) Olbrecht
3) Bertolf
4) Wilreich
5) Boleslav
6) Zenobius
7) Wigelois
8) Konrad
9) Thibault
10) Veit
11) Trutwin
12) Zigismund
13) Segehart
14) Ruprecht
15) Ruland
16) Balthasar
17) Janderke
18) Bernhardus
19) Brughard
20) GawinMedieval French Names:
1) GEOFFROI
2) GUISCARD
3) CLODOVECH
4) GODEFROY
5) RAIMBAUT
6) SABASTIEN
7) AIMERIC
8) CYRILLE
9) CLOVIS
10) BARNABÉMedieval Slavic Names:
1) MIKULAS
2) VACLAV
3) KRESIMIR
4) RATIMIR
5) DOMAGOJ
6) BORIC
7) MIHAJLO

13) ZYGMUNT
14) BRATUMIL
15) GNIEWOMIR
16) BORZYSLAW
17) ZENON
18) TARAS
19) SYLWAN
20) KLEMENSI can include much more if this is useful!
16. April 2015 at 00:42 #1833TrigParticipantI’ve been mailing something similar with the devs in the past, as I too strongly support the variation and name diversity.
My reasoning was that if units look like generic north-central european ones, therefore using gear that was worn from Scotland to Poland, from Sweden to Slovenia, then the names of the brothers should reflect that.
Although it’s a question which variation of the name should be used, since most languages had their own variation of the same name, such a Mícheál, Michael, Michel, Mihál, Mihael, Mihajlo, etc. or Stiofán, Stephen, Steffen, Štefan, Stefan, Stjepan, etc.
Here’s the list I suggested, which is a balanced mix of Scandinavic, Germanic, French, Norman, Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Welsh, Romanic, Slavic and Christian/Biblical names:
“Sigurd” “Siegfried” “Benedict” “Teoderic” “Harald” “Ludovic” “Sigbold” “Gregor” “Cedric” “Gunther” “Egon” “Friedrich” “Boris” “Olafur” “Knut” “Baldric” “Aldric” “Arthur” “Agnar” “Ulfberht” “Tostig” “Bertram” “Albrecht” “Baldomar” “Brian” “Erwin” “Arnold” “Edmund” “Arnulf” “Vladimir” “Bjarni” “Henri” “Alrik” “Hubert” “Berengar” “Ernust” “Robin” “Horik” “Gerhard” “Lutobor” “Bogdan” “Alexander” “Iulius” “Gottfried” “Peter” “Martin” “Ferdinand” Dominic” “Gerold” “Gerulf” “Patrick” “Karl” “Bjorn” “Dagobert” “Erik” “Philip” “Hakon” “Fergus” “Randolf” “Rollo” “Leif” “Torstein” “Radomir” “Ivan” “Reynhart” “Baldur” “Olaf” “Egil” “Magnus” “Gunnar” “Georg” “Jan” Torvald” “Bernhard” “Einar” “Ragnar” “Dimitri” “Eberold” “Bertwin” “Reimund” “Wolf” “Eberhardt” “Hugo” “Johannes” “William” “Haribert” “Engelbert” “Francis” “Gawain” “Torkel” “Dunstan” “Torleif” “Erhard” “Valdemar” “Ulf” “Otto” “Hermann” “Heinrich” “Halsten” “Edward” “Eadwulf” “Aldemar” “Hrothgar” “Leofric” “Lothar” “Manfred” “Dietrich” “Wulfric” “Sigmund” “Kurt” “Volkun” “Ulrich” “Grimald” “Berthold” “Alberic” “Bertolf” “Walter” “Humbert” “Adelmar” “Konrad” “Radulf” “Rudolf” “Adalbert” “Hjalmar” “Reiner” “Roland” “Alfred” “Tristan” “Robert” “Wolfram” “Andreas” “Reynhold” “Raimund” “Dylan” “Roderic” “Jakob” “Llewelyn” “Richard” “Geoffrey” “Leonard” “Gabriel” “Michael” “Augustus” “Frederick” “Edgar” “Stephen” “Victor” “Conan” “Maximillian” “Leopold” “Nicholas” “Urban” “Clement” “Sebastian” “Anton” “Christopher” “Gustav” “Thomas” “Oswald” “Marcus” “Abelard”16. April 2015 at 12:51 #1838RapKeymasterThanks for the suggestions! We’re continually expanding the list of names and also removing the odd one here and there that turns out not to fit with the concept of our world as we flesh it out more. The Let’s Play series is on an older build from April 2nd and so, unfortunately, doesn’t quite reflect the recent state of names in the game.
16. April 2015 at 16:23 #1839Asterix_von_TWCParticipant@ Rap! But please tell me that you don’t like some of the names I posted :D – I tried to very much go with the Battle Brothers theme… if a name didn’t sound good as pronounced by Jaysen I didn’t include it ;p
16. April 2015 at 17:59 #1842MalthusParticipantI hope there will still be a Hugo in the final game xD http://www.allmystery.de/i/t922b36_game-hugo.jpg
"I am a Paladin!"
>OMG, Malthus, there are no damn paladins in Battle Brothers...<
"OK, OK! Then I´m a wrecked down minstrel drunkard pretending to be a paladin, singing so wrong in the midst of battle that even the undead run in fear... Better?!"17. April 2015 at 10:36 #1843JaysenKeymaster17. April 2015 at 10:39 #1844Asterix_von_TWCParticipantWhat’s a Hugo without a Trutwin, Bahltasar, or Bertolf? (I do like my list)
17. April 2015 at 16:49 #1856TrigParticipantI Have to agree that the Hugo-ratio is not really satisfying in the current build
Too many or too few? Generally, nothing wrong with the name Hugo. Very international.
