I'm not a streamer, but I would like to see Titanfall 2 streamers that use this mod be able to get back some of the joys of rivalry when they play in multiplayer.

I think the "Unknown" function should still be the default configuration, but add an option to assign a random nickname to players in a match from a list of names instead. These nicknames are consistent per player for the duration of the match, and show up in the leaderboard, the kill feed, battery offering, any place that would normally be replaced by "Unknown".

This way you can still experience many of the intricate relationship dynamics of multiplayer matches with others, like someone killing you many times, and you deciding to hunt and take revenge, while still defending against DDoS, obscene names, and other behavior.

It may be a bit hard to assign random names consistently, although it maybe possible to do it based on the player ID.
Another issue that might come up is resetting lists each match.

I'll look more into it, but at this point it doesn't stop a DDoS attack, but it does keep streamer names private.

I just read my issue again, and I think I did a poor job of explaining: I'm not asking for player's random names to persist forever, just for the current match.
