So some of the background histories include you making friends with a person who is named several times in the entry... however,at least one version of the entry rerolls the name if not every time then several times throughout the entry. Not a huge priority but I don't think it's supposed to do that, might be a classic bug though, I don't remember very well.
This one does use the final name again to refer o the same person and it's reasonable that the three names listed could be three separate characters, but I've definitely encountered bios where this makes much less sense!

Re: [0.11.0] Minor bug in History page
Source text is using macro %fn which just generates a random name. We could easily make this deterministic when processing backstories, provided only a single NPC name like this is used for each backstory. Otherwise, all NPCs would end up with the same name, which is also a problem.
Definitely one to review, I'll move to bug reports for later follow up. Cheers.
