Masculine Examples: Laikori, Gregovski, Prevolash, Teodrik, Elmlo, Barbyas, Fyodovitch, Vladlav

Feminine Examples: Vidlana, Rupita, Mishira, Vessitsa, Vidmila, Sadya, Bogdova, Bilibuna

The famous monster-hunter Leshko the Wolf instructs his pupil, Princess Selenuna

As you can see from the examples, this one generates a lot more nonsense than either the Italian or Dark Crystal generators using this same format.  Plenty of naming conventions break down completely when subjected to this method - I think this is a good example of one that just about works.

90, 8: "Vasilisa"
