If I had time to prep, I liked searching online databases/postings of Civil 
War unit rosters.  Aside from the lack of female names, that was a pretty 
good way to pick up regional names - especially since a lot of names have 
gone out of style.

The French are a smallish, monkey-looking bunch and not dressed any better, 
on average, than the citizens of Baltimore. True, you can sit outside in 
Paris and drink little cups of coffee, but why this is more stylish than 
sitting inside and drinking large glasses of whiskey I don't know.
