lazy renamer

Name the NPCs and/or objects whatever you want. This is a lightweight plugin (tagged esp for esl) that won't take up a plugin slot in your load order! :) NOTE: Be sure to read Sticky's original mod without the esl flag:

The following is quoted from the original mod's page.

NOTE: Despite stating that this mod and its requirements are all in "alpha/beta", this is no longer the case for the requirements (SKSE & SkyUI) and this mod is stable. Having said that, I highly recommend using MO2/Vortex with LOOT, x/z/SSE Edit, Wrye Bash, Mator Smash, Nifopt, Asset Optimizer, etc. - they are all invaluable tools that will save you a lot of time and headaches. It never hurts to check for conflicts and make sure everything is working properly.

This mod and all its requirements are in alpha/beta - don't use it on anything/anyone, and don't save it where you can't afford it

limitation

If you delete the mod then the NPC names will be restored. They are not permanent, so

Need to be active to reapply them when the game loads

Object names will usually be restored as well, but there are exceptions

Renaming a non-unique NPC (basically any randomly generated NPC) renames every NPC of that type

Sometimes it is necessary to save and reload the game to visually update the name

If an NPC has had its name changed by using a quest alias, it is permanent and therefore cannot be edited by this mod.

If an NPC has a changed name in one save, it can also have that name in another save

You load it in the same session. This is just using

Cache renamed versions for faster loading. Restart Skyrim and load

If distracted, play the game again.

These are game limitations that are even mentioned a lot on the CreationKit Wiki, and are unlikely to be fixed. At least not me.

How to use

Approach NPC/object until current name is displayed

Bring up menu

Enter new name

Finish

For NPCs or objects that have been registered with new names, the option to delete them will also appear in the menu

To use the hotkey option you need SkyUILib, otherwise the popup will not be displayed. If you're using the converted Oldrim mod, you probably already have it, as many bundle it.

LIMITATIONS

NPC names will revert if you remove the mod. They're not permanent so it

needs to be active in order to reapply them on game load

Object names will generally revert too but there are exceptions

Renaming a non-unique NPC, basically any randomly spawned, may rename every NPC of that type

Sometimes saving and reloading the game is required for the name to be visually updated

If the NPC has already had it's named changed through the use of a quest alias it's permanent and cannot be edited by this mod.

A NPC with a changed name in one save may have it in another as well if

you load it during the same session. This is just the game using a

cached renamed version to speed up loading. Restart Skyrim and load the

game again if it's distracting.

These are game limitations many even mentioned on the CreationKit wiki and not likely to be fixed. At least not by me.
