TheAaron | Token Name Number

Hey, first post here and I've spent quite a while trawling and lurking these forums for an answer to one question, The TokenNameNumber script, did you (Aaron) ever manage to create an API with the functionality to pull names off of tables (or handouts like the Markov Api) such as mentioned some 5 years ago? So that tokens could be individually named at random instead of numbered? February 24 (5 years ago) The Aaron  Forum Champion   API Scripter Permalink   Quote   Report That's a great idea!! I have plans to write a Marcov Chain based trigraph random name generator, and this would be a great way to seed it... In the interim, it would be pretty easy to have a syntax to put names in from a table. You'd need a pretty good sized table, and a plan for handling running out of names. You could repeat names, or append a count. (This problem would be solved by a generator. )

I did not. Still sounds life fun, but there's a lot of other things I need to do...
Would there be a quick way of integrating an existing Marcov name generator with the output of your Tokennamenumber script? So that rather than generating a random name in chat, it outputs it into the specified %%name%% field?
