Proper Baltic Names
This mod replaces the default personal and dynasty names for Baltic cultures (Lets, Lithuanians and Prussians).
The idea was to expand the name lists, including only the names that are consistent with the respective naming conventions and ethymology. Christian names were ommited.
Ironman Compatible. Achievement compatible.
Lets (called Latgalians in the game): names of historical rulers and families were used, as much as possible. But since only a few such names and families are known, most of the other names come from the period of romantic nationalism. Personal names of Finnic or Scandinavian origin were omitted. The family names are consistent with Latvian naming traditions.
Lithuanians: names of historical rulers and houses were used, as much as possible. Other personal and family names of Lithuanian origin were added to the list. Ruthenian and Polish names and houses were ommited.
(Old) Prussians: some personal and family names are mentioned in historical documents. But very little is known about Prussian language and culture. Therefore, most of the names and family names are Neoprussian (which is a reconstructed language).
Dynasties and cadet dynasties have separate lists.
NB! The default (vanilla) name lists will still be used for the first generation AI rulers and their family members (and for the player too, if you don’t use the ruler creator), since these characters are pre-determined in the history files. But the game will use the mod lists for all the random courtiers and new generation characters.
