Country specific names for NPCs

Its already way cooler now that they have names and stats, but why stop there?
Instead of generic sounding names for all countries we could use names which sounds like it'd sound like in that country.

This can be a biggie or not (I mean to do it), but it would look and feel even more cool and realistic!

Here is an example fake id generator which uses countries as a base:

Perhaps there are other free tools offering the same with an API, this one unfortunately doesn't have one, in worst case scenario we could write a script to scrape it from html into our database straight away?

This is something we're already doing to an extent, it's just that the API we're using doesn't have every single nation/culture group represented.

Available nationalities in the current API we're using are: AU, BR, CA, CH, DE, DK, ES, FI, FR, GB, IE, IR, NO, NL, NZ, TR, US. For missing nations I try and use a regionally-similar approach, with a fallback to au/gb/ca/us/nz as a last resort.

Ah Ic, well just keep it in mind in case if we find a better (broader) one!
The above one is a very good generator, hungarian names are pretty specific to the western nations so it's a good reference point, this generates authentic names at least in hungarian I can confirm that.
