good idea, AnthonyMy friend is a Civil War reenactor and they must have historically accurate names. They're encouraged to search for old family records, newspapers or legal documents (all available online) to find authentic names. You may also want to try a reenacting website as they can probably point you in the direction or even give you examples of names.
