This is an interesting article about using markov chains to generate realistic sounding character names [http://www.dgames.org/markov-chain-name-generator/](http://www.dgames.org/markov-chain-name-generator/) in this case it generates Hindu and ancient Greek names but the same principle can be applied for whatever. Also there are any number of baby name sites that I use. You can look through names of certain origins.
