Identity Generator Translations

In AliasVault, when creating a new credential, AliasVault automatically generates realistic alias identities including:

First names (male and female)
Last names (surnames)
Email addresses
Birthdate

The AliasVault identity generator uses lists (dictionaries) of possible names. Currently, AliasVault has name lists for the following languages:

🇬🇧 English (en)
🇳🇱 Dutch (nl)
🇩🇪 German (de)

How to Contribute

We need lists of common first and last names used in your language/region. Technical skills are not required. For each language that AliasVault supports, we need a text file with one name per line:

Basic name lists

Male first names (100+ names)
Female first names (100+ names)
Common last names/surnames (100+ names)

History specific name lists

AliasVault also supports history specific first names (per decade). In many countries and regions, name popularity has changed throughout the years. Names that used to be popular for people born in the 1950’s are barely given to people born in the 1990’s and vice versa.

How to Submit Your Names

Create simple text files with one name per line:
- firstnames_male.txt
  - optionally: firstnames_male_1950_1960.txt, firstnames_male_1960_1970.txt etc.
- firstnames_female.txt
  - optionally: firstnames_female_1950_1960.txt, firstnames_female_1960_1970.txt etc.
- lastnames.txt
Send the files to us:
- Discord: Join our community server and share in #translations or via private message
- Email: contact@support.aliasvault.net
- Crowdin: If you’re already a member of the AliasVault Crowdin project, send a PM with an attachment

After we have received the files, we’ll take care of the technical formatting and making it available in the AliasVault apps.

Tips

Name Selection

✅ Use common, popular names - Names you’d actually encounter in daily life
✅ Modern and traditional - Include a mix of classic and contemporary names
✅ Diverse styles - Represent different regional variations within your language

The more names = the more variety and more realistic identities!
