How is a Fijian name built?

A gender-tagged given name plus a shared surname. Men draw from a 109-entry given bank, women from a 145-entry bank, and both attach a surname from the 260-entry pool.

Do men and women share surnames?

Yes. The 260-entry surname bank feeds both given banks, so a family name like Leweniqila or Tuwai can attach to either.

Why does the surname vary most?

The shared surname bank holds 260 entries against 109 male and 145 female given names, so across many draws the surnames spread wider than the forenames.

Naming notes

The 260-entry surname bank is shared by both given banks, so the family name carries no gender on its own, and it is the largest of the three banks. The given banks are split (109 male, 145 female). Use this as a Fijian label, distinct from a generic Pacific set by its surname stock.
