Godot Name Generator Class
A downloadable class
This is a utility class I made to name stuff in multiple projects. The strength of it is its flexiblity, allowing for more than just a short set of character names to be cycled through.
The big feature is that this is expandable in your own projects without editing the class, if you want to see the example of AddWordSet below for details on how.
This code is made available as public domain under the CC-0 license.
Example use:
var results = NameGenerator.GenerateName("{adjective} {animal} {number}")
print(results) # something like "Hungry Wolf 24"
var results = NameGenerator.GenerateName("{firstName} {lastName}")
print(results) # something like "Larry Landbert"
var nameset = "scientist"
var names = ["Einstein", "Curie", "Newton"]
NameGenerator.AddWordSet(nameset, names)
var results = NameGenerator.GenerateName("{firstName} {scientist}")
print(results) # something like "Larry Curie"
Settings:
maxNumberResult: the highest number can be dropped in place of the {number} value. Defaults to 9999.
TitleCase: If true, each word in a generated name is capitalized. Defaults to true.
