Discussion edit

  Comment This looks interesting, but all three examples return "Name not found." for me? Moebeus (talk) 16:07, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not all names have their origin in English (neither in French by the way, since there are more than 100M names in the database). But for each name, you have the heat map and the places where the name is most found for the period. Ayack (talk) 16:13, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
