This name is given via a sign in the center of the village, see the description of Areas for more information on how this is done. It&#8217;ll give your world a bit more immersion. It is possible to remove the sign and rename it, or remove the name altogether by placing an empty sign in its position.<\/p>\n<p>The Areas mod has specific config options if you&#8217;d for example like to remove the &#8220;Entering&#8221; part of the displayed text.<\/p>\n<p>You can also remove the automatically generated sign and place your own. Just make sure it&#8217;s within a 15 block radius of the automated one.<br \/><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Commands:<\/strong><\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><em>\/areas<\/em> &#8211; Shows all area signs, which contains the village name, around the player.<\/span><\/p>\n<details>\n<summary>Show Spoiler<\/summary>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.serilum.com\/projects\/random-village-names\/a.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"555\"><\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Example GIFs:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<details>\n<summary>Show Spoiler<\/summary>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.serilum.com\/projects\/random-village-names\/b.webp\" width=\"1000\" height=\"578\"><\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<details>\n<summary>Show Spoiler<\/summary>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.serilum.com\/projects\/random-village-names\/c.webp\" width=\"1000\" height=\"578\"><\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<details>\n<summary>Show Spoiler<\/summary>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.serilum.com\/projects\/random-village-names\/d.webp\"><\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>You may freely use this mod in any modpack, as long as the download remains hosted within the Modrinth ecosystem.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:18px\">Serilum.com contains an overview and more information on all mods available.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\">Comments are disabled as I&#8217;m unable to keep track of all the separate pages on each mod.<\/span><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><br \/>For issues, ideas, suggestions or anything else there is the&nbsp;Github repo.
