  • Activity reflects downloads across all supported WoW versions.
  • Scores only compare addons within the same list and period, and they aren't quality ratings.
  • Rank changes appear once there's enough history to compare.

From the author

Excerpt from the author's description on CurseForge

A simple lib adding the option for Name Variations to addons

Unlock a realm of possibilities as you gain full control over the names of NPCs, players, pets, and more. Whether you're seeking to enhance role-playing scenarios, create thematic storylines, or simply add a touch of personalization to your adventures, CustomNames provides Addon Developers with the tools to do so. CustomNames gives you the ability of mapping character names to Nicknames of your choosing e.G. SuperSaiyanDK to "Nick" or Nickspriest-Draenor to "Nick".
