It is pretty amazing how complicated names are if you want them something other than just "your full name as it appears on government ID". Even the casual idea of a "first name" is culturally centered...

They still had playing cards back then Apparently there's evidence of playing cards in Europe from around 1370, which predates powered flight, electricity, the difference engine ... but not double-entry book-keeping (1299). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card_game https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card_game
