About submitted names
I wonder if some admins or moderators add submitted names to the main database.

The only person who can add names to the main database is the owner of this website. He usually does it 2-3 times per year. You can contact him here: http://www.behindthename.com/info/contact

They do. In fact, there was an update recently and quite a few names were added. Obviously there are tons of submitted names, so it would be quite the undertaking to look at them all and add them to the database. They way the updates look from the past, I am assuming that Mike C and other admins go through names in batches to determine whether to add them. This was the most recent update summary:

I ask the admins and moderators to add the names via email, right?
