Naming notes
Female draws use the female given-name bank, male draws the male one, and both attach a surname from a shared pool of 332 entries. The surname bank carries forms that keep a leading Le or Ar particle (Le Goarnig, Ar Garreg). Region label: Brittany. The male given bank is the largest of the three, so male given names vary more before a surname repeats.
