Questions about male renaissance names
- How is a name assembled?
- A given name is drawn from the male 260-entry bank or the female 159-entry bank, then a surname from the shared 203-entry pool, always two words.
- Why do some surnames carry da or de?
- Those tokens are stored as part of the surname entries (da Barberino, de Albertis); the generator keeps them attached.
- Are these specific historical figures?
- No. The given name and surname are drawn independently, so each result is a generated pairing rather than a record of one person.
