Names by country
One page per country: how people are named there, the commonest given names and surnames as the official register published them, the same ranking across every record we hold, and the names that are characteristic of the place rather than merely common.
250 countries. 32 have official registers for both given names and surnames, 178 have at least one register, 34 rest on our record corpus alone, and 6 hold no name data beyond their languages. Every page says which it is.
