How is a Circassian name built here?

A gender-tagged given name plus a surname. Males draw from a 350-entry bank, females from a 128-entry bank, and both share a 1,200-entry surname pool.

Why can the same surname go with a man or a woman?

The surname bank is shared and holds 1,200 entries, so the gender comes from the given bank; a female first name such as Zhanqwdas pairs with any surname from the pool.

Why do the names keep clusters like kw and zh?

The transliteration is stored with those clusters intact, so the given and surname slots keep forms like Kwshbiy and Shhampizhevy as written rather than simplifying them.

Each result is a given plus surname form, as in Kwshbiy Shagul and Mile Elzhirokovy for men and Abexw Shhampizhevy and Zhanqwdas Lyamzhievy for women.

Naming notes

Two patterns run over three banks: a male given name plus surname, and a female given name plus surname, with the 1,200-entry surname bank shared and the largest by far. The transliteration keeps consonant clusters like kw, x'we and zh as stored. Because the surname bank is unisex and very large, the same family name can attach to either given bank while given names recur sooner.
