Currently Dynasties named after their founder are just "[Name]-id". Is there a way to add an prefix instead of that postfix?
In the localizations there is a line where dynasty names and prefix are found:
FOUNDER_BASED_NAME_POSTFIX:0 "id"
I tried something else like FOUNDER_BASED_NAME_PREFIX:0 "yae ", but it didn't work. Although during testing a few new dynasties which where named after their founder where simply named like "Adam Adam", missing the '-id' or any other postfix or prefix.
 
I think this is applied at the cultural level, but it doesn't look like there's variety in the dynastic realm's suffix? Have a look at files in common\culture\name_lists. 00_berber.txt just as an example, the name_list_butr entry has these lines after the pool of female forenames:

dynasty_of_location_prefix = "dynnp_mn"

patronym_prefix_male = "dynnpat_pre_ibn"
patronym_prefix_female = "dynnpat_pre_bint"

founder_named_dynasties = yes

I'm pretty sure that 'founder_named_dynasties' flag is what sets the realm to go by the dynastic rather than geographic name. If that's calling on a single localisation string, you'd be looking at replacing -id with of X for everybody with this flag.

Just for contrast, the 00_west_germanic.txt file in the same folder has this set in the block for English names:

dynasty_of_location_prefix = "dynnp_of"
bastard_dynasty_prefix = "dynnp_fitz"

patronym_suffix_male = "dynnpat_suf_s"
patronym_suffix_female = "dynnpat_suf_s"

So the realm is named for the territory, but individual dynasty names can be "of X"
