Yes, until the city names were moved into and external user-
editable file (nations.ruleset), which is read by the server.  
The server doesn't send all the city names to clients, because 
there is no need, and no advantage that I can see.

So for server-customizable city names we have that now.
If you want different names customized at the client end,
one could use the method I outlined.
