I'm helping Leoreth with Dynamic Civ Names while he focuses on more crucial aspects of the game that actually affect game balance. He has approved most of these changes but we have decided to release a trial version here first to garner more feedback from the player community.
You can download my Expanded Dynamic Civ Names here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/edcns/files/EDCNs/Assets.zip/download
To install, simply unzip it into your DoC folder. This is for the latest SVN versions (543 and later). Earlier versions will not be compatible because of the recent Civics overhaul.
Also, how frequently I update this modmodmod is not a problem, in the sense that save games from previous versions will work just fine with any newer version.

Note: The list of features in this forum post and the next will no longer be updated as of 21-08-2013.
