I know. That's why I first chose to do names based on real names found in real countries, but I don't like it. Therefore I'm going to generate lots and lots of names, pick the ones I like, and then change them in such a way that each group has its own sort / type of name.

I hope it was intentional? If not, then that's a book-breaking mistake.
