From what i've noticed, the computer decides what to name children at conception at the latest, since If I load up a pregnant woman the child is always named the same. Could very well be earlier somehow, or else it goes through the names with a fixed algorithm or something: in the Welsh game, in the 1086 save, my second son was always named Owain, loaded it up probably 3 times from a point before he was born (in this new 1072 Wales mod reincarnation, he hasn't been born, yet at least).
You could always edit the save I guess, just changing a characters name isn't that hard if you can find the right character. First check your primary titles tag to see the rulers character id, then search through your dynasty to find the kids with the right father and edit their names. Don't think it needs anything else. Or hey, the Welsh names aren't that common, just do Find and search for the rulers' (or directly for the kids') first names directly.
Also, 2 questions for jordarkelf and/or Drachenfire: I was amused by the fact that Rhys Morgan (char id 6382) is part of my dynasty, yet has no relatives of any kind in 1066. He's in 2.1b already, is this sort of thing common?
Question 2: I know this is hardly an undisputable source, but wikipedia ("List of rulers of Wales"), seems to imply that the 1066 scenario should have Cadwgan ap Meurig Morgan as Duke of Morgannwg and Count of Gwent, with Caradog (the Count of Gwent in-game) as a vassal Count of Morgannwg (Glywysing): " [The Kingdom of Gwent was rule by] Cadwgan ap Meurig (1063-1074 [years of his reign]), who was also King of Morgannwg, ruling Glywysing through
Gruffydd ap Rhydderch's son, Caradog ap Gruffydd (1075-1081) who seized Gwent and the Kingdom of Morgannwg"
To clarify, Caradog ruled the County of Morgannwg from 1063-1081, and seized power from Cadwgan in 1074/1075.
Both Counties are in the base game already (Morgannwg C019, Gwent C020), but the Duke of Morgannwg title is only added with DVIP-Wales. Are there other historical sources that would be more reliable maybe? Otherwise, take this as my suggestion for the next update of DVIP-Wales: Make Cadwgan the Duke of Morgannwg and Count of Gwent, with Caradog as the vassal Count of Morgannwg.
