Hello, I would like to suggest an expansion of the number of first names which come under the @@RANDOMNAME@@ variable.

My suggestions for the first names (of mixed gender and origin) are: Alison, Andrew, Andy, Arbor, August, Bella, Camile, Diana, Elmar, Felicity, Harry, Herschel, Ingrid, Joe-Bob, Jon, Karen, Lia, Liam, Mandy, Monty, Norman, Octavia, Penny, Peter, Qadir, Roh, Sam, Sebastian, Tia, Udi, Vann, William, Xander, Yvonne and Zephyr.

The result is that it should add more diversity to the name database, and that it should cover all 26 letters of the alphabet. What do you think?

Don't you have something better to do?

While I'm not in the know, I do have the impression the randomnames aren't as random as might be suggested. Names seem to be added rarely, and with purpose. As such, just putting a whole batch of new names in there doesn't strike me as consistent with prior policy.
