I wrote a program to scan through every character's speech files and sort out mentions of other characters. It was originally intended to show the relationships between characters. It looks for certain keywords related to characters (usually nicknames) as well as character-specific items.
This is the python script used to generate it:

It's kind of messy, but you can see the keywords that it looks for. "aliases" is for detecting words in the quote, and "specifics" is for character-related prefabs.
I think that the table works pretty well, but I am open to suggestions on how I could improve it. I probably forgot a few keywords or items, or maybe there is another category I can add. It uses javascript for readability, so just hover over the table and the corresponding data should appear in the space below it. Or, if you're on mobile, you should be able to tap.
