I discovered the random name generator while trying to figure out a way to find truly random names for THE POSTART PROJECT’s mailing list. The generator uses census data to return names of a specified obscurity. “Spring Galofaro,” “Mose Freligh” and “Elease Fesus” are some of the favorites that came up just now. Setting the obscurity level to 99 revealed that a surprising number of people either lie on census forms or go by single names such as “Brdar” and “Partinope.”
