Condensed Male Names

Description
Reduces the number of names from whatever the vanilla number is (I don't have it in front of me right now) to about ~160, which is generally much more recognizable. The names included are generally more 'formal' (e.g. Antonius rather than Anthony), and removes names that do not sound regal or noble (e.g. no Pauls), any shorthand/'nicknames' (e.g. no Charlies), and is generally phonetically English (e.g. Alexander over Aleksandr), with very few exceptions.

Obviously, as you can expect, what names should remain and which should be removed is subjective, so if you see a change you don't like... do as you want. I'm not opposed to making changes, just depends on what the change might be.

I may look to add more names over time (and also remove the occasional name that strays from the original goal of being 'aristocratic/formal' and 'recognizable').

@Dizzy Ioeuy; obviously Paul Atreides would be regarded as 'regal', but separating the character from the name, 'Paul' does not strike that chord for me. The western 'Paul' has much more of a religious background to it. I /would/ consider adding something like 'Paulus', but that would just be tacking it onto the list of a couple dozen or so changes I would make (removing names, primarily), that I don't really care to do at the moment.

Feel free to add whatever you want. Personal preference and all that.

idk Paul sounds very Regal to me... Dune anyone? But I see your effort.
