(i tried searching for this topic, but didn't find anything specific)
Don't get me wrong, I love all the randomly generated content, but man... some of those factions names are hard to say, nevermind hard to spell!
I get the idea that (presumably) some alien species are going to have names that are completely incoherent to us humans, but that doesn't mean we have to call them that. If I want to refer to the "Fquplfoortzeas" after discovering them as the "dirty space lizardmen", I should be able to, right?! ;D
All joking aside, my suggestion is make it so alliance leaders (or people with appropriate assigned rank) can re-designate any faction to whatever name the alliance wants to call them. That way it only needs to be changed once and everyone in the alliance can see the same thing.
If that is asking too much, at the very least, is there a way for server admin to rename NPC factions? If not, there really should be.
I'm not thrilled by the idea, but I'd even take manual file editing over having to pronounce "the Alliance of Wgowlruwl" to someone every day I'm online.
