The list below is organized by voice actor, and does not list every voiced NPC-for more comprehensive lists of NPCs, organized by voice type, see this category list. Although some NPCs have unique voices, the large majority of them have one of more than 50 "voice types", where generic lines of dialogue, such as greetings, may be reused across many different characters. All these possibilities will bring an even more intimate experience for those who still brave the lands of Tamriel.Skyrim features a cast of more than 70 voice actors, many of whom are also notable film and television actors. Players can choose their real names, a fantasy-sounding name that fits best with their race, or even funny names for laughs (like the xX_dragon_killer_420_69_Xx Ruta used as an example).

With the Say My Name mod, players can be called as they please, even the most Khajiit or Orcish names. Skyrim is well known for its character customization, but no matter the player’s race and name, most NPCs always called you Dragonborn or variations of it. Sometimes, the difference will be so subtle that it’s hard to notice there’s anything amiss due to NPCs maintaining their voice and tones almost equal to the original. The mod isn’t perfect, but it sounds way better than expected-even when you use odd names like xX_dragon_killer_420_69_Xx, the first example Ruta showed in the video.

A video showing the software changing the voice lines of some NPCs as they talk to the player character surfaced earlier this week on Ruta’s YouTube channel, as spotted by PC Gamer.
