How unsafe is it to change sims' names?
moniquinin:
Right, but then that only changes the first name :-\ And....I'm an idiot - I haven't quit and restarted the game since it takes too long so I haven't tried Christinlov's thingie yet, but what I wrote above is nonsense. The surname I'm interested in changing back from my CAS sim wouldn't still exist in the game because she got married and took the townie surname. I guess this can't be done then.
Gwill:
Make a dummy sim with the correct last name in CAS and copy from there.

Now i am totaly confused what name to alter in Simpe is unsafe?
I dont understand the surename, lastname, firstname, whatevername thingie.
Please explain it someone for dummys like me.
I have altered a Thomas to Aaron in Simpe. If i understand right thats the no no. (made it later with the Lotdebugger)
To alter a Thomas Wood to a Thomas Smith in Simpe is alowed ? Or is it also a bad thing to do.

Do not perform a first-name change in SimPE, as this process is incomplete and does not correctly rename everything.
Last names may be changed arbitrarily without harm in SimPE.
I thought the first and last names of a sim were all stored on the CTSS resource in the character package. Are there other places that store this information? Or perhaps SimPe changes the strings in only one language?

The OBJD also carries the first name of a sim, and renaming in SimPE will not change this.
