Ancients Namelist

Description
Temporary:
PLEASE READ KNOWN ISSUES BEFORE USING.

Description:
As the title may clue you in on, this is a namelist mod that adds two ancient cultures to your list of namelists. That means this only adds the randomized names of leaders, colonies, planets by type, vehicles, vehicle classes and so on.
This is a revival mod, based on the Aztec and Egyptian namelist mods that stopped working some time ago.
I have updated them, upgraded them with wider functionality and a ton more mythological references; even of the mostly unknown kind. And I have expanded upon them with a plethora of names in previously unused categories.
All so that you may once more create your Egyptian and Aztec themed space empires, such as the ones I have provided in the screenshots.

What this does not do:
Name of your empire, ruler titles and other things not randomized by namelists will not be affected by this mod and will be up to your imagination to fill out. Just as it was up to mine.
If you want some help with inspiration, these were the two most useful sources I had in making this mod.
Pantheon: Aztec Mythology [www.pantheon.org]
Pantheon: Egyptian Mythology [www.pantheon.org]

Known Issues:
At the moment there is an issue only with the aztec list that somehow prevents non-ruler leaders from being assigned names. I am furiously working to fix this, but i need some help from skilled namelist-modders with this, if you are one, don't hesitate to message me.
Do not fear though, I am using this mod myself in my own playthroughs so i am intent on fixing this annoyance. Until then, please use the egyptian half of the mod, or if you don't mind nameless leaders, use the aztec list anyway.

Incompatability:
There is no incompatability that should ever occur with this mod, so unless Paradox breaks the namelists once again, this should continue to work for a long time.

@dial I have not played Stellaris in years, as much as I've been wanting to. So I have not been able to test it. But unless they have changed the way namelists work since 2017, it should still work? I would appreciate it if anyone could test that. It literally just generates ships, people and ruler names, so simply subscribing, loading the game and creating a new empire should be sufficient to test it.

does this still work?

@Wilder thanks for answering, I'm only asking because if the list name is not properly localised, it can't be easily identified. Otherwise I'm ok with some english words in the list, that's something that sadly happens with all the lists in the game, but at least it won't look strange, besides it's not your fault, but the developer's.

@Marcvsiulius I only have english localization at all because a localization file is a required part of creating a mod.
English isn't my native language either, but its one of the languages i know best. I will look into adding a line for spanish, but i cannot make any promises. Additonally it would only affect the name list title itself, if a namelist contains english words it would not change that at all.

@Wilder Do you plan on adding Spanish localisation for the name lists? It's very easy: Egipcio: Nemet , Azteca: Náhuatl
