First Name (male) generator

Last modified: April 3, 2025

The First Name (male) generator produces a large set of male names for testing, character creation, demographic research, or any other application that requires female-specific first names.

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific
First Name (male)	Zane, Ernest, …	character varyingcharactertext	Default

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column that matches any of the following rules:

The column name starts with ‘first’, then goes ‘name’, preceded or followed by any or no characters, and ends with ‘male’, regardless of the table name.
The column name starts with ‘first’, ‘given’, or ‘middle’ and ends with ‘name’, with any or no characters in between, regardless of the table name.
The column name is ‘forename’, regardless of the table name.

Configure additional options

The tool allows you to set additional options:

In the File to load data from box, select … to choose a file to load data from. The default path to the file that stores a list of DE female first names is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Devart\dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL\Data Generators\FirstNamesMale.txt.
Select the Trim left trailing spaces checkbox to remove spaces, tabs and other non-printing characters on the LEFT of each string.
Select the Trim right trailing spaces checkbox to remove spaces, tabs and other non-printing characters on the RIGHT of each string (does not remove line breaks).
