## 🔮 Names

### 🧙🏼‍♂️ Fantasy

Fantasy names are created by two or three syllables randomly taken from an array. [src -> Utils]

The syllabes were created by my own imagination.

### 🍣 Japanese

Japanese names are created by two or three syllables randomly taken from an array. [src -> Utils]

For a moment is using only part of Japanese syllabes which all are introduced e.g. on [Wikipedia](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E8%AA%9E%E3%81%AE%E9%9F%B3%E9%9F%BB) and transliterated to romanji.

romanji - transliteration to latin alphabet

### 🍜 Chinese

Chinese names are generated based on first 1000 Hanzi characters from: [https://en.wiktionary.org](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Table_of_General_Standard_Chinese_Characters).

Transliteration from hanzi to pinyin is managed by [pinyin-pro package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pinyin-pro).

Chinese names are combination of one, two or three Chinese Hanzi.

hanzi - Chinese character

pinyin - transliteration to latin alphabet

## 🎨 Design

The colors were created by [canva palette generator](https://www.canva.com/colors/color-palette-generator/)
