Re: need help on finding orgins for these made-up names
Go back to your message, and you'll see that some of the names appear in blue. These are real ones, and if you click on them you will go to their entries in the database.There might be other Oriental names among your list that exist in the real world - we haven't got a complete list by any means!

Any name can become real. What makes a name real is the fact that enough people use it to make it show up on the statistics. Making it real is quite a task for an individual, though! Will Apple become widely used? Let's wait and see ... it worked for other nature words like Brook and Willow.
