Check out this link for the number of words for each letter count.
The numbers are a tad bit lower than you reference. https://www.quora.com/How-many-4-let...ist-in-English How many of words are there of different sizes in that dictionary? # Case-sensitive results # To address why there are 52 1-letter words. # macOSX considers each letter a separate word # so -> 26 * 2 ( for upper and lower cases) 1 letter words -> 52 2 letter words -> 160 3 letter words -> 1420 5 letter words -> 10230 4 letter words -> 5272 8 letter words -> 29989 7 letter words -> 23869 9 letter words -> 32403 6 letter words -> 17706 11 letter words -> 26013 10 letter words -> 30878 12 letter words -> 20462 14 letter words -> 9765 16 letter words -> 3377 15 letter words -> 5925 20 letter words -> 198 19 letter words -> 428 17 letter words -> 1813 13 letter words -> 14939 18 letter words -> 842 21 letter words -> 82 22 letter words -> 41 23 letter words -> 17 24 letter words -> 5 ------------------ How many of those words would people want as their name? I suspect those numbers are a small fraction of these numbers. | ||

Dictionary words != names... words like: Juul, Talep, Findar or whatever makes a perfectly fine name, not in a dictionary.
Even if I lower my percentage to 0.00001% of possible combination of letters (and i didn't do 4^26, so i already filtered out a lot of consonant mashups), which is one in ten millions, it would still take about 90,000 iterations of Green to take 0.01% of these names. It's honestly flabergastingly high as a number the possibilities that we still have open. You just have to think of a name for your character, not a gimmick word that people will go, "Oh, good one [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]" when they see it. If anything, this will slightly protect immersion. Well. Slightly. People are still the usual dumbasses they are ^^; Hell, some people even name their character after a city they lived in or something. losers.

John, Shawn, Robert, Legolas etc. Just because you can arrange letters into many different combinations doesn't mean even 0.00001% are desirable. I'd add many more 0s before the 1. | |||
