Explanations for the surnames of my two cyclists in the Nations committee

Post by kolofon CC » Tue Sep 24, 2024 12:23 am

Since I received a message from the Nations Committee, regarding the Greekness of the names of two of my athletes (Spiros Kovachev and Pantelis Fillipov), I would like to clarify the following:
In Greece there is a percentage of citizens with Greek citizenship who come from Eastern European countries. There are many names in sports and art with similar origins.
I created the specific names with my own generator of random Greek names and adjectives that come from a real list of telephone directories from the 80s. Indeed, 2 names of this type in a list of 9 names was a very strange coincidence, when in about 10000 total surnames it is unlikely to have more than 50 similar ones.

Hi kolofon CC. Try it here in the thread for exactly these cases: http://www.radsportfreaks.de/RSFForum/v ... start=2550
I didn't mean to say it. But I meant what I said.
