- richrichardsson 6y agoIt would certainly appear to be scraped (see "Name sources:" at the bottom of the page), and that there hasn't been any human curation. eg. Masculine English names that may also be Croatian words: Blagdan This is more likely a surname than a given name. And I'm not sure how names like Ivo and Kristofor can be considered in the intersection of English/Croatian. Having said all that, I think it's still a useful resource, and I don't wish this to come across as putting it down.
