I haven't seen anything about being able to make your own nicknames for Aces and I was wondering if something like the child naming system in Ck2 was possible/planned or if it could be modded in so every time your air force generated an ace a text box popped up with one of the auto generated nicknames that I could either accept or change to something else.

It's a neat little idea :). Like Nicolas says, not essential, but could add some nice flavour. I'd probably go for an optional button to press when the aces come up, rather than a compulsory "confirm name or put your own in" (although you could possibly integrate it into the "ace generated" pop-up, which'd be fine) - I'm just coming from the "make any extra clicks optional" perspective.

I'd say there's a text file with all the names that aces can have listed, so it would be a simple matter of editing that text file in a small simple mod afaik. Not an ideal solution but at this stage the game is feature complete at 1.0 and they won't be making any major changes to systems I'd say, just balance tweaks and that kind of thing. I'd say we'll likely see this kind of thing in future patches/DLC but for now, modding will probably be the solution. :)
