Speech and characters with similar names...

I'm engineering a game to have speech. The lines are all auto-numbered, and I understand the principle of putting the first four letters of the character's name, followed by the number.

However, I have three different characters with similar names. cRobberGreen, cRobberRed and cRobberBlue.

How will this work? Does it mean that I instead continue up the line of letters until there's a difference (i.e. RobberG, RobberR, RobberB) or that the speech for all three of them will be prefixed "Robb", and the numbers of the files split among them?

I'm guessing the latter; I'd rename them to cRedRobber, cGreenRobber and cBlueRobber though.

For ensured hilarity I hope you lend your own voice to Nancy? :D

I'm afraid my girlfriend's already insisted on that one. (roll)

At least the Find & Replace tool works, so it shouldn't be too much work to rename them ;)
