This tool helps you understand who a person is based on their first or last name. You input a name, and it tells you the likely gender, country of origin, and popularity rank of that name globally or in specific countries. It's useful for anyone working with customer data, demographic analysis, or needing to quickly infer common attributes of individuals from just their name.

984 stars. No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you need to quickly determine the probable gender, country of origin, or popularity of a given first or last name for demographic analysis or data enrichment.

Not ideal if you need to load and process data on systems with limited RAM, as it requires approximately 3.2 GB to load the full dataset.
