Default German Name Generator

I found this generator online and wanted to share it with you guys. For the people who get stuck finding a name for their Captain.

Nice find

Back in SH3 I liked the way SH3Commander randomized the captain names.
I'm using my latest name from SH3 in SH5 now.

Kaleun Robert Menge

I still use Commander to generate names for my SH4 u-boat kaleuns, and for when I still play Aces Of The Deep.

This looks good though.

Didn't think of that option... Thanks, Steve

I never have been able to stop chuckling at how SH5 defaults a new commander's name to "Oscar Entwickler" ("Entwickler" meaning "developer"), but that's just one of the quirks of being a polyglot.

Thanks for sharing the link, though. It sure beats just picking a random name from the online telephone directory for Dusseldorf

That's one I didn't know. In the U-boat add-on for SH4 the default name was a tribute to Dowly's funny creation: Bernard von Unfal.

I was trying it last night and it doesn't seem to randomize that much. It seems to be the same ones over and over. Maybe if I close out browser and reopen web page it will refresh it some how. I still like SH3Commanders name generator.

Ok, I figured it out. Just hit web page refresh button and it will generate the names for you. Why couldn't I think of it last night, lol. I guess I was up very late and tired.

Hope you guys enjoy!
