randomNamesData


A dataset compiled from a large scale data set of names providing first names by gender and ethnicity and last names by ethnicity. The dataset provides
frequency probabilities from the original data set so that sampling provides a reasonable set of random names. The dataset is for use with the
<code>randomNames</code> function to quickly generate random names that can be used, for example, to anonymize results.
