This file will need to be re-applied if/when official patches/updates are released to ensure full compatibility. This is due to the fact that some files which are removed when installing this file are automatically re-installed by Steam when official patches come out.
Some of these changes, ESPECIALLY THE CLUB NAMES, do NOT apply in existing save-games. There's a workaround for that in the first post.
The sortitoutsi real names fix changes the instances of fake names in Football Manager 2023 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed, such as Premier League displaying instead of Premier Division. It will also fix the fact that the German and Japanese National teams don't call up real players. These are all fully save-game compatible.
There is also a club name changes file, which changes the names of clubs in a way which ensures that any nicknames entered in the default database are retained. This file includes the proper names for Brazilian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian (including Napoli) and French clubs, as well as Manchester Utd, to circumvent licensing restrictions. It also adds real-life media and journalists, encompassing most major footballing nations and continents. Brazilian clubs' text colours are also changed through an editor data file. Another editor data file creates the Ajax non-playing staff and the German national team manager missing from the database due to licensing restrictions. Finally, it includes a small file which corrects the 3-Letter competition names to correspond with any changes made in the lnc files. For all the files in this paragraph to work, however, you will need to start a new game.

PASTE to \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023\editor data
This is also the same folder to be used for Gamepass.
Equivalent folder for Mac
Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive
By default this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as follows:
Open Finder
Click ‘Go’ from the menubar
Press and hold down the ‘Option’ (Alt) key
This will bring up the ‘Library’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘Sports Interactive’ -> ‘Football Manager 2023’

devices / home / deck / .local / share / Steam / steamapps / compatdata / 1904540 / pfx / drive_c / users / steamuser / My Documents / Sports Interactive / Football Manager 2023 / editor data
This should be what your editor data folder looks like now. There may initially be a config.xml file in this folder and it can be safely overwritten; it is generated by FM every time the game starts.
To make sure the files have been applied correctly, go to English Premier Division in your saved game, and it should be renamed to Premier League. If you are in the middle of a save-game when you install this download, Japanese and German national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not immediately. Do keep in mind that this file does not add Japan-based players, who are not in the official database and will need a third-party add-on to be created and added.
Club names are only changed if you apply the editor data files before starting a new game. For a workaround if you've already started a new save-game, then please read the opening post of this thread.

i load the Dutch and the Ajax's staff is OK.
Sorry Mons !!
mons
No worries. It's not immediately evident, granted; it took me an hour to figure it out yesterday, delaying v1.0 of the file till I realised that's all that was needed!
niklas_88
I dont own FM23 but in the file for FM22 swedish Division 2 Östra Götaland should be named Södra Götaland.
IIRC there is one more swedish division with the wrong name but dont know which one from the top of my head..
mons
Got that, and will be fixed in v1.3.
These are the lower Swedish leagues in the file - do any of them ring a bell as the one needing to be changed?

I left out the names of the sponsors for the clubs, they change so often here that it would be a mammoth task to check them all the time. But it would certainly not be bad to include them at least for the first 4 leagues. But the stadiums are great, I wanted to add that as well. I had already thought about the abbreviations for Sturm and Rapid, aslo SK Sturm and SK Rapid, and I wanted to submit that later.
FMChloe
I downloaded this update and put it in the right folders etc, when i loaded up my save the club name had gone back to ‘Man UFC’ when during the Beta i had it as ‘Manchester United’
I have even tried the steps in comment reply 1 on page 1 and it still says Man UFC
Copywriter
The club sponsor names are from the first two leagues Admiral Bundesliga and Admiral 2 Liga
Marco9012
I found another thing to fix.
Hamburg team u19 is not Hamburger Sv u-19
Thewes
I know.
I have now adapted to your role model and corrected all names for the first 3 leagues + the U18 league and the stadions of the first 2 leagues.
@Mons: The rest of the Austrian club names can be removed.

@Thewes great job. Thanks
Darren Wainwright
Does this work for FM23 Mobile?
FMChloe
I'm having the same issue even though i have tried all steps and fixes and it still says Man UFC and Manchester UFC so god knows whats wrong ??????
mons
The steps in the first post are shown in this video. @Lee Hyden too
Lee Hyden
Hey FMChloe. Theres a guy on youtube called Jay Edworthy. He uses this real name fix. Watch his video….. I'm now sorted.
Lee Hyden
All done now mate. Thank you 🙂
FMChloe
I have already done this step and any other step and it still isn't working. I even re downloaded the update and re pasted them in and re did the replace club name step too
mons
Can I see screenshots of how the folders in the main post look like on your PC? Can I also have whatever files that you've edited from them attached to your reply?
FMChloe
Yes here they are below attached
GDragon2306
Conference League in Italian is shower "UEFA Europa Conference Le", can you fix it?
mons
Can I have the lnc file in which you've made the changes attached as well?
I'll try, but it's a database issue with the Italian language.
FMChloe
Attached
mons
Do pay attention, all you've done is replaced #"CLUB with #Club within the lnc file, which is not what the first post tells you to do. All you needed to do was remove the hashtag from in front of the entries for United:
FMChloe
What about now? lol
mons
Nope. You really need to pay attention; you didn't even realize I gave you the file as an attachment in my previous post…
FMChloe
Haha yeah silly me forgot to download your attached file and overwirte my file lol but now have done that my bad
TRFC
Thanks so much for this @mons, others have said it but truly I couldn't play FM without your work.
Just a quick note - I was updating all the LNC files and found a few rogue quote characters in each one that the game won't parse correctly, mostly in the Italian sections - if you do a find and replace of “ and ” for " that'll fix it. 🙂
The affected lines are all #'d anyway, so it won't make a difference right now, but thought I'd flag it just so it's fixed in-case it's ever needed!
bigpole
@mons - are you gonna be removing dots from Portuguese clubs to have full short name like Vitoria Guimaraes instead of Vit. Guimaraes? If not, I can do this myself but I'm merely being curious.
FMChloe
Also now its working for me thank you, but i just noticed that 4 clubs from LaLiga showing some gibberish names
