Custom Name Lists

Version 2.0 added the ability to create custom name lists. When the mod is first loaded, it creates a customnames.txt file in the config/villagernames/ folder where you can add any names separated by commas.

To use custom names, make sure the useCustomNames option is enabled in the settings.

Profession Identification

Since it can be difficult to determine a villager's profession by name alone, the mod displays the profession on the trade screen.
