These are from a list I made to give some international flavor to my settings. There is a theme, but (as you say) it doesn't matter.

I suggest, however, that you don't use anything that you can't readily pronounce (or alter the spelling/pronunciation to something more comfortable). I discovered that my players took the too-exotic names and gave them easier nicknames anyway.
