Where to find first/last name lists

MrHaroldG · 11-17-2006, 05:22 AM

I had no idea which forum to put this in...but does anyone know of any resources where I can find first/last name lists (even books on these names will suffice) for foreign countries? The Gaminggeeks website had a pretty extensive list for many of these nationalities, but its server has been down for quite a while. I especially want to find resources for African names, as they vary from region to region and, in some cases, even from country to country.

The names and nations section would be a good spot.

As to your second question, I don't know. Someone hopefully will come along with answers.
