Way to distinguish between same named characters
I'm encountering an issue where I'm supposed to resolve a conflict between Hagrd and Juan, but I have two Hagrds!

first name last initial would exponentially increase name probability. Add in more names to the pool. Add in as well some special feature to rename pawns...
If you want to stick with mononyms you could also add a collection of suffix morphemes to use once a name has already been used. So if the game is out of names and needs a new orc it would take an existing OrcName and append an OrcSuffix. Eg:
OrcNames = [
Ankle
Bammy
Cheese
]
OrcSuffixes = [
ar
by
co
]
So once you had an Ankle, a Bammy, and a Cheese, you would start getting Bammyco, Bammyby, Cheesear, Ankleco, etc
I would guess that whichever one it is would have a burning hatred of Hagrd. Look at relationships? I don't know though.

Good feedback, thanks!
