Renamed cities have names in all caps

[pjotroos]

Did anyone else encounter it? Renaming commanders works fine, but the cities always go all caps. Could it be linked to a mod, or is it an issue in the base game?

Apologies for the bump, but this continues to drive me mad. I'm assuming this is not mod-related - I tried renaming with all mods disabled, and it still shows us all caps in the pop ups. Could anyone confirm that this happens in their games, too?

I really hate playing with mismatched city names. History made in layers and all that is fine, but it doesn't work if there's no decent way to update settlement names to match your current layer. There used to be a brilliant mod (People Just Liked It Better That Way), but it broke a few patches ago. I haven't found a replacement to it yet (I'm aware of Rosetta, but it doesn't do what I'm after). That means all I'm left with is manual renames - and the manual renames go ALL CAPS, which is ABSOLUTELY awful to LOOK at.

Someone help, please.

Yes, it's the same for me in my games. Don't like it either, though there is too much other stuff annoying me regularly in the game that I tend to forget this detail.

Confirmed - it happens to me too.

This happened in civ6 as well and they never fixed it

Ah, that's frustrating. Never realised, since the city names in 6 already matched my civilization at all points.

This started maybe two updates ago. It's annoying.

Yeah I wish someone would fix that mod too. I’d try but I don’t have the time these days.

Wasn't it straight broken from the moment the renaming feature for cities was added?

No, for at least one iteration you could rename a city/town and not get all caps. I don't get why it changed. It's a small thing, but a disappointing backslide nonetheless.
