In Realm, you could simply serialize/deserialize the array to Data (or String), like this:

class SomeModel: Object {
    dynamic var _names: Data!

    var names: [String] {
        set(value) {
            try! realm.write {
                _properties = try! JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: value, options: [])
            }
        }
        get {
            guard _names != nil else { return [] }
            return try! JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: _names, options: []) as? [String] ?? []
        }
    }
}

This will store your array in Realm, but will not allow you to sort or query using the names in the array, obviously.

You probably better store each name in a proper model object and create a one-to-many property in the base object (using Realm's List)
