Multiculti name generator

The goal is to generate names (first, optionally middle and one or more family names) in the same manner as was done for the character "Jules-Pierre Mao" in The Expanse.

Cultures

These are chosen based on the (subjectively) distinctiveness of typical names in the respective cultures. Care will be taken to select names:

from cultures in as much as they are prominent
that are as distinctive to the culture as possible
that sound or read as distinctive as possible while still parseable and pronounceable to an English speaker

List of cultures that are aimed to be supported:

[ ] English
[x] French
[x] Spanish
[x] Slavic (mostly Russian)
[ ] Indian (mostly Hindi)
[ ]Chinese (mostly Mandarin)
[ ] Arabic
[x] Japanese
[ ] West-African (Hausa or Yoruba)
[ ] East-African (Oromo)
[ ] Germanic (maybe with Dutch included)
[ ] a native American Language (Iroquois, Apache, Nahuatl, Maya, Quechua, Aymara, Tupi)

Cultures that are in the running to be added (more or less in order):

Turkic
Portuguese
Greek
Dutch
Italian
Korean
Polynesian (Hawai'ian, Maori or Fijian)
Indonesian/Malay
one or more native American Languages (Iroquois, Apache)
Celtic
Latin
Scandinavian
Persian

The choice of the names will be based in how distinctive and typical they are to the culture, think "John Smith". This means that names that are common among multiple cultures, like or instance religious names, will be less prominent because they are less prominent.
