I do what I can.![]()
So OK, let me clarify something about the 'blank-forename' trick. It works as I just tested it myself five mins ago.
However, the trick might not be best for you because rulers (princes too) use forename while in power. Ex: Pope Urban II. Of course you wouldn't wanna have Pope ____ II when playing a campaign. SO this 'blank-forename' trick isn't the best option. So forget this one.
Now I just found out that Golden Horde doesn't have a list of surnames. Then I started to remember that a mongol general will always have the same name whether he has a title or not. I terminated the french surename list and localised a new forename. Then I changed the "forename" of one of french heroes that come out in the beginning ("Baldwin" to "Weebeast the Infidel") so that I don't have to wait. I just left the surename column blank. I don't think you need to localise "blank" unless you use heroes like I did. I terminated the surname list after all.
Anyway, see screenshot. Ignore the "sir" because heroes will have that.
So the best logical trick to deal with this problem is to not to use surname list for your factions. You can have as many characters as you want. Just localise it. Well, I guess there's limit but you get my point.
