@Tubby: Is it possible that you can create a list with american player names (first and last names)? I've check the whitepages, but then I need to specify at least two lastname characters. I have found a list with the top 100 popular first names for men and women. But I need more...

If you're not interested, just let me know, no problem!

@all: any help you can offer is welcome! A list with player names from your own country would be great! (I saw some German and Canadian people..

Great thanks Tubby!! I've loaded these names in the DB already.. If you have more lastnames, and firstnames, just post them (or PM). The minimum we should have is about 200 lastnames. Else the number of players with the same lastname will occur to much..

Thanks!! And.... Everybody should take an example on Tubby! :-)

Hey Tubby,

Do you have some first names? And anyone else, if you have some names, just post them!

Thanks!!

For French-Canadian names,

http://www.rrq.gouv.qc.ca/Interactif...SPrenoms.aspx?

This is the list of first names given to babies in Quebec since 2000. Blue for guys, yellow for the ladies.

Since we like the our first names to be a bit bilingual, many of them are good to use in english.

EDIT:
I found this for the top 1000 quebec family names:
http://www.stat.gouv.qc.ca/donstat/s...mille_1000.htm

This for family names France:

This for family names Belgium: (Wallon and Flemish)

Cool thanks, I can import these! But do you also have a list with canadian last names?

barbu1977 · 29-09-2006, 22:31

The problem with whole Canada, is that this is a provincial juristriction. Each province compiles it's own result, this is a source for whole canada.

Damn.. But without last names, I can't enable other team nationality's.. I you find anything, let me know!!

Thanks for all the support, guys. We now only need a few more American and Canadian last names, and we can add two nationalities for our players. And we'll change the name of one player of everybody who helped to your own name!

So, if you have anything, let us know!
