Well... you could have still edited the previous post and just deleted the 2nd reply


Seemed like too much work.    :-X

SimPE still shows them with the original names, just to add to the confusion.

I'd make a backup of the neighborhood and try changing the names (to whatever) in SimPE. If the changes show up in the game, change them to what they should be. I don't know if it's possible that the game could be reading the UK text strings while SimPE is seeing your original text....

That is exactly what is happening. If you change your locale, the UK English text is read, and if this locale has different entries, Sim names change.
SimPE always shows the US English names by default.

If you do not save the game with the wrong names, but immediately quit and reset the locale, your original names return.

Hm. Well, I've definitely saved, multiply. But we'll see. I'll do the reg edit tomorrow and then see if maybe changing and re-changing names in SimPE works. You never know.

EDIT: Huzzah! It worked on everything, even the dead! April is April again.
