egy_names 0.3.6

A production-grade Egyptian onomastic intelligence library for Dart & Flutter — generate, translate, annotate, split, and analyze Egyptian names.

egy_names (Dart)

Egyptian names engine for Dart and Flutter. Same book as the other SDKs — 44,626 lemmas, offline.

A legal Egyptian name is a patronymic chain, not a first name and a last name. This package generates, translates, splits, and corrects those chains.

The Secret Code of Egyptian Names — how the engine was built.

Accuracy

The book comes from real records. Some names will still come back wrong — a rare spelling, a name the catalog has never seen. If you find one, open an issue.

Install

dart pub add egy_names:^0.3.6

Or in pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  egy_names: ^0.3.6

Use

import 'package:egy_names/egy_names.dart';

final e = EgyNames();

print(e.split('محمدأحمدعليحسنالشناوي'));
print(e.translate('محمد أحمد علي الشناوي'));
print(e.correct('احمد مصطفا عبد الرحيم'));

final name = e.generate(gender: 'female', religion: 'muslim', length: 4).first;
print('${name.ar}  ${name.en}');

print(e.isValid('محمد'));   // true
print(e.isValid('الله'));   // false — in the index, not a person's name

print(e.detectGender('فاطمة محمد علي'));     // first personal token wins
print(e.detectReligion('مينا جرجس بطرس'));
