database - Does anyone know of a good library for mapping a person's name to his or her gender? -
I am looking for a library or database that can guess whether a person is based on the name of a man or woman Or aliases something like
john = & gt; "M", mary => "F", Alex = & gt; "A", #Majith I am looking for some things that support names other than English names (like Japanese, Indian, etc.).
Before I get another answer on the lines of "I'm going to humiliate people considering my gender / gender", I'm clear, my application does not interact with anyone. Does not send or contacts anyone. There is no user to ask in many cases, the person is dead in the question, and I have only one information, the name, the date of birth, and the date of death. I want to know the gender of the person, therefore, to improve the grammar of production and to assist in possible searches which can come later.
The gender of a name is something that can not be programmatically estimated in the general case. You need a name database
Edit : The link for the 2010 name is dead but there are links working in the comments and a library.
