Whenever I have a youth intake, I rename the new players to match the real world academy players at the club. I rename them using FMRTE, but in some occassions the name doesn't exist in the database and I have to rename the player manually through the in-game editor.

My question is that while renaming a player from, let's say "Williams" to "Obodaby", everybody with the name Williams will become Obodaby. It doesn't happen every time though. Any idea when exactly this happens? I thought it was only when the number of letters match the new name exactly, but that didn't turn out to be true. I also think it only happens for the last name and the first name is not affected.

This has always been an issue with FMRTE

The Dev is aware and hopefully it can be resolved in future versions

cheers
