What –

Platform to explore & share details on names of any background & origin. Currently hosts more than 160,000 names. Combines gender data from US & UK census. You can also access all information via REST APIs.

Why –

Because currently there is not a single place online, that provides such information on names in a clean, ad-free fashion. On most sites, you feel like walking on the field full of ‘ad’ mines.

Who –

While searching for a suitable name for his younger son Anuj back in 2009, Naren founded NamesETC.org. After maintaining the site for 10 years, decided to shut down the site, but kept the content at the new location – www.z2a.info/Names

Media coverage –

NamesETC.org the original site was featured in Sammamish Review in 2011.
