Page 12, under Rashemi, in the FRCS. Did you look in Races of Faerun or Unapproachable East also?

Hey, I feel in a good mood today: I'll make a search (because this interests me, as well) and then post a link here! ;)

Here is what you need: a nice pdf file from a Danish website, full of name (both firstnames and surnames) from various cultures/countries. It seems that the names in the "slavic" subsection are the one closest to the Rashemi names offered in the FCRS or UNA, but the "Russian" subsection is also fine (and can be used for Damaran names, I'd say).

This file even has a "Fantasy names" subsection! Got no idea what the website is really about but they seem to have a "rolenspil" subsection, sounds familiar anyone? ;)

10-12-04, 05:00 PM 20k is a great place to go to find odd names and the such, even if it isn't FR Names.

That site has names from left, right, up and down. It has a good variations of names, (Charlie, Charles, Chester, Chuck, Chuckie,etc.etc.) and what is the meaning behind them.

So I would go there if none of the names suits you and the sort. I mean some of them really do sound like FR names on the ocassions ;)
