I think it'd be neat, and not a ton of work, really.

Remember that CF has roughly 10,000 unique NPCs. Now, a lot of then are "a male goblin" or whatever, and don't need this treatment. But I'd bet upwards of 1,000 NPCs would qualify, and would each need a list of alternate names. (Let's say 10.) Think of how long it takes you to come up with a fitting name for a new PC. Now multiply that time by 10,000. Now add in that you have to respect the style of each area's author- what does a "good" Talshidar name sound like? What about all the items or rooms that mention a specific person?

One of our strengths is that we've built up and refined a huge area database over our 9+ years. However, any change that involves adding content to all areas is going to be a big one. We're willing to do these sorts of broad area changes, but there has to be a pressing reason to justify the workload.
