      Huh, so presumably, they send out groups of names by an area’s demographics. I could see them ending up with some very strange seeming names in some areas, either by smaller towns being grouped in with nearby cities, or due to supply chain changes, and stock for one area getting rerouted or mixed up.

      Like there might be plenty of Sikhs in NYC, but go upstate and its possible someone’s never heard the name, or met a Sikh.

        The names are definitely somewhat geographical. They’re different here in Sweden. No Gurpreet here
