Technical Notes & Usage Tips

German names typically consist of a first name (Vorname) and a surname (Nachname). Surnames often originate from professions (e.g., Müller for "miller"), locations, or patronymics. After generating a name, it is advisable to consult a German pronunciation guide to ensure accurate usage. Typical examples: generating a male full name might output "Elias Schmidt", while generating a female first name might output "Hanna".
