You keep track of all their names? I quit worring about the names after all the puzzles are solved. What is the point?

I doubt I would that game long after solving all the puzzels. No matter how fond you get of a village the game does get stale when nothing new can be accomplished. So I would start a new one. However the point I was trying to make is this bug creeps into games rather early and continues until the end. That is a LONG time to be fixing bugged names. I don't want 6 people with the same name, it's hard enough when many look the same as well.

We are aware that there's a bug in the villager names, but there is no fix for it at this point.

I never knew there was a bug in regards to the names. I honestly haven't read all the posts yet, but just to clarify is the bug what causes people to have the same name more than once in a particular game or is there something else going on? I never really noticed a problem on mine.

I just thought that it was randomly assigning names to people and mimicking how names are assigned in the world. If there is a bug does that mean everyone has it in their game or is it a random thing like a virus? (I am not really sure how these things work.)

I still crack up at the names these villagers get, especially, "Tuna", "Soda" and "Tofu". Why in the world would these names be assigned in the game? I bet someone at LDW was having their lunch and had a last minute inspiration! LOL I just bet!

I hope when they are thinking of names for the sequel that nothing bad happens like a bad case of stomach flu or we may end up with names like "Diarrhea", "Pepto", "vomit" and "Headache"! LOL!

Praying for good health to all LDW employees!

Thanks in advance!

I always wondered if Seven came from a Star Trek fan as most names are short, and i dont see five six or eight in there.

I never thought there was a bug. Kinda thought it was like real families -- I'm a Margaret, so is my mom, her aunt, greataunt. Since I've worked on my tree I've found lots of lines in the family that carry the same first names.

It's both normal game function AND a bug! It's normal for the game to assign the same name to more than one villager (as in real life - how many people do you know with the same name?)! There is also a bug that causes some villagers' names to change while scrolling through the details screen. When this happens, the affected villagers will always be "adjacent" to each other in the details rotation.

I think you should use some of the names of your beta testers! That way some of us can live on this earth for ever, and ever!
