Is there a way to get stock-alike last names?

[Hyperspace Industries]

I want surnames, but I only want a few, like for instance, Kermanly, Kerbstein, Von-Kerman, or Kerolev. The RO one changes first names, is there a way to get stock name generation to work with that, or should I just change everything in the RO name editor (it can be installed without the rest of RO). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Isn't the RO version  a fork of the Kerbal Renamer mod?  It can generate first and last names using a configuration file of combinations.

Yeah, it is, but the original kerbal renamer mod is long outdated, and the RO one makes realistic, instead of kerbal, last and first names.

Couldn't you  just edit the RO renamer's config file and put your own combination of names in for first and last? You might even be able to do it in an MM patch.

Alright, I mainly started this thread to find out if there are any alternatives to that option, but it looks like there aren't.  

This will take a while.

I've been looking to possibly adopt the original mod... just saying.

That would be pretty cool. 

Would be nice if a rename mod  (to be named later) could provide names to Contract Configurator via an extension "BehaviourFactory" to allow contracts to make use of the naming scheme too...

Fun! Did you post your name configs anywhere, by chance?

No, but I must say, if I remember right, @AtomicTech made a mod for this, also retrofitted from kerbalrenamer, but it has support, which, since my one can be slightly temperamental, is good.
