Elyran Name List - NSC & PD

This version requires Planetary Diversity.

Look at my other creations to see the version that requires no dependencies.

---

The Elyran name list is a comprehensive, lore-friendly namelist designed specifically for Stellaris. It adds hundreds of carefully curated names for species, leaders, planets, fleets, ships, ship classes, armies, and stations blending a more grounded scifi tone with some inspiration from a certain classic space opera. The Elyran Namelist takes explicit inspiration from games and media such as Titanfall, Halo, Star Wars Legends & Canon, Star Citizen, and Warhammer 40k.

This name list is more oriented towards humanoids and machine species but could be used for any species. It is especially oriented towards either technocracy and militaristic empires but again could be used for any government/ethic focus.

This list will keep getting updated over time as I find more names I like that would fit well in this list.

Unique Names

Planets: 377 Ships & Ship Classes: 691 People: 440 Fleets & Armies: 228

The amount of unique names and the way the planet classes are weighted should hopefully make most of your new games feeling fresh and full of variety.

Planetary Diversity Requirement

This mod uses Planetary Diversity's planet classes to neatly organize and add a little more variety to world names. Planetary Diversity uses many planet classes and I divided them up into their vanilla types, then their class, then weighted the world names.

There are 180 individual planet classes and the majority of these are divided amongst their nine vanilla climate types.

The namelist also includes a generic fallback planet-name pool for world types that do not have a dedicated category.

You may see a compatibility check when starting a new game - this is on purpose for a backend mod.

The "development build" will require NSC as well and the First Contact Story Pack for the cloaking technology. The base version of this mod is available as well without any of these dependencies.
