Creating a Custom Name List
SaraMK:
I figure with their name system you are less likely to have name combos like John Smith. And all 500,000 aren't going to be John Smith. And hopefully the address book would have other identifying info, like city of residence or something.
In any case, isn't Bjørn outlawed as a name now? Or am I thinking of some other country?
Simergy:
I've got a name for you.
Years ago, there was a newspaper article that a woman had been arrested for drunk driving. Her name (and it was in print, I swear) was Marigold Thunderpussy.
I ask you, if that were your name (I'm sure it was by birth), wouldn't you change it? To like, Jane Thunderpussy?
I crack myself up :D

Yeah... but... don't they only have like 500,000 people? Can't be that hard.
300,000 (give or take) actually...

Icelandic doesn't have the 'ø' in the language, so it must be some other Scandinavian country. In Iceland, it would be Björn.

Why would a name be outlawed? My father is named Bjørn. It means bear; quite litterally, not just in some vauge archaic way.
And yes, I believe they use Ö in Iceland, not Ø. Denmark and Norway use Ø and Æ, Sweden and Iceland use Ö and Ä, but they are the same letter; pronounced exactly the same way.
