Generate random elven names, that are unique and politically correct. This can be used to anonymize data, for example. This is based on the algorithm proposed on < https://web.archive.org/web/20210412140219/https://www.angelfire.com/rpg2/vortexshadow/names.html>.
This is a simple R package that allows generating unique random names of elves. This is especially useful if you want to anonymize names in a politically correct manner.
You can install it from CRAN:
R``` install.packages("randelves")
You can then use the package in R like this:
R```
> randelves::random_elves(10)
[1] "Tatharaethus" "Caelellondeth" "Thasel" "Evselelis"
[5] "Rure" "Lamemar Nyvara" "Jarnaerail" "lyn'Dhodreron"
[9] "Eilreen" "Lalianas"
You can also require short names:
R```
randelves::random_elves(10, short = TRUE) [1] "Aeltil" "Nuvanna" "Eirtae" "Sylthi" "Baelatril" "Gilemar" [7] "Afla" "Zyuath" "Afafel" "Sehin"
Under the hood, this uses the algorithm proposed in [https://www.angelfire.com/rpg2/vortexshadow/names.html](https://web.archive.org/web/20210412140219/https://www.angelfire.com/rpg2/vortexshadow/names.html).
