The class name in the Recognition Manual or the periscope-view notepad has nothing to do with ship names. The place to change that is in the Roster folder. There is a folder for each nation there, and inside that are files for each ship class. On that page you will see 'DisplayName'. That's where the RM reads it from.

I see a smallish download of shipnames from Aug 2010 (181) that Frau Kaleun refers to in her erudite discussion with Rob40, but, is this short list all I need? Is there another readme somewhere that I need to 'get' all this?

The '181' is the number of new ships I added from the July list to the August list. I was apologising for that amount because I usually manage to get 300 or more per month. There are a total of more than 11,000 names on that list. Hardly "smallish".
