For all those Keepers of Arcane Lore out there.

While playing Call of Cthulhu, I would often find myself in need of random names for NPCs. I never was very good at coming up with good era-specific names, so I created this iPhone app to help me.

Using data from the Social Security Administration and the U.S. Census Bureau,shaking this app will generate names from among the top 1000 baby names for a given decade and gender and the top 1000 last names for the U.S. When you see a name you like, tap it to add it to the list. When you are done, just email the list to yourself for later use.

The decades range from the 1880′s to 2000′s, so there are 26,000,000 possible names to use for your next campaign.
