Names

Go package for generating random names so that I don't ever have to do this again. Generates random first names, last names, full names and docker container-type names from a long list.

If nationality or gender-specific names are needed:

Many sources on github:

• A db of russian names can be found at https://github.com/sorokinpf/russian_names
• A db of spanish surnames can be found at https://github.com/jvalhondo/spanish-names-surnames

Many official sources such as INE (Instituto Nacional de Estadística): [Demografía y población / Padrón Población por municipios / Apellidos y nombres más frecuentes] (http://www.ine.es/dyngs/INEbase/es/operacion.htm?c=Estadistica_C&cid=1254736177009&menu=resultados&secc=1254736195454&idp=1254734710990)

And much much more.

I then got the word lists from https://github.com/quitehimself/names to generate mock sentences.
