AUSTRIAN-AMERICAN NAMES (nameset 31)
0.3% of the American population (Austrian)
0.4% of the American population (Swiss)
The first question that you might ask is "why bother?" This much-maligned nameset is often cited as one of the more unnecessary ones, and there is unavoidably a good deal of overlap between this nameset and the German (7) nameset (which I have, however, tried to minimize). Nevertheless, there are some differences, such as the Austrian -egger ending (e.g. Schwarzenegger), which, I believe, is related to the German -ecker ending (e.g. Honecker). I have, for the most part, changed the characteristic Austrian -l ending (e.g. Haindl) to -el (Haindel), as it's uncommon for the -l ending to have survived the Americanization process. I have also deleted Slavic names unless a German spelling has been adopted.
To fill out this nameset, I have also added Swiss and Bavarian names, so this is something of a South German nameset. It should be used in conjunction with the German nameset (so, e.g., if you want 15% German names, you could split it 14% from nameset 7 and 1% from nameset 31). The first names are identical to the German first names.
