How do I "automatically " rename heroes?
From OHRRPGCE-Wiki
Renaming automatically here has to be understood by "not done by the player" that is to say it is the names that YOU have given to the heroes that will stay all along the game. If it is not the case, go above and read the appropriate article.
To make things clearer, I'll take the example of Jason Bourne, whose is going to remember his past and former name on a rpg game.

[edit] 1 Rename automatically a character that has never joined the party (but who is going to do so)
First thing to be aware of is that we can do anything until the hero has not joined. Therefor, all you have to do is using the command
add hero (hero: Jason Bourne) #hero with his/her old name
and reading section 3 which is just above. Once it's done you may want to use
swap out hero (hero:David Webb)# hero moves to the reserve lock hero (hero:David Webb) #hero became invisible
And when you finally want the hero to join, you'll need
unlock hero (hero:Yorgo) swap in hero (hero:Yorgo)
[edit] 2 Rename automatically a character that has never joined the party (and who never will)
If you have decided for some reasons that the character will definitely NOT join, that mean that he is not a "hero" anylonger but a NPC. Therefor, all you have to do is keying in his/her name (and dialogues) carefully on the text boxes (see above for more details)
[edit] 3 Rename automatically a character that has already joined the party
The name of the hero have changed but he is in your team when it happens. To do so, we'll enter the new name of the hero through a string. Here is how to do it.
Let's say like just in the Bourne Ultimatum, you learn the real name of the main character as your adventures goes on. In this case, you'll have to rename hero (me)
# Jason discovers his real name $0="Jason Bourne" set hero name(0,find hero(hero:David Webb)) # replace 0 by the figure of other heroes to rename through plotscripting
Please note for that for heroes you don't use much, you may need to go under custom.exe check the number of the hero whose name has to be changed.
