Q: 

Personal name generator

Hi all,

I would like to populate my database with randomly generated personal names.

Would you know any software tool (no web pages!) that can help me achieving this?

I will need to generate at leat 5,000 personal names.

Thank you.

A: 

What language are you developing in? Ruby has the Faker gem which in turn is ported from the Perl version.

I am using C#. I am going to have a look to Faker and see if there is a compiled version.
