Is this possible? I have seen squads called 'Axeorcs' or 'Swordorcs' in the orcfort succession game, I'd REALLY like to know how.

[Meph]

Fort names no, but changing squad names is a vanilla feature and can be done in the military menu.

[Gamerlord]

Specific names? Without repeatedly disbanding/remaking the squad?

yeah

[Meph]

Just press 'N' in the military screen. My kobold squad of witches is called "Witches of the Wild" for example. No problem.

I just wish there was a way to name pets.

[Gamerlord]

Excellent.

The fortress and group names can be changed at embark, but they're not free text. The wiki page for fortress name is basically an orphan page oddly enough but gives an overview of the interface and name structure.

Edit: Ok, it's not really an orphan, it has a link from Fortress, which has plenty of inbound links. But it probably should have something from embark directly.... I think I'll fix that.

You can use DF Hack's rename to give a pet a nickname. I did it in my last fort to give quite a few critters names.

I will test this. I thought it only works on civ-members.
