    My family name comes from beer making in Germany. But I hate the taste of beer.

    I meet mostly moms. So I save them with their name and their kid's name and sometimes the location we've met (usually a playground nickname) on my phone. Sarah Noah Locomotive, Madlene Jacob Crown, Vitali Pasha Poop.

    A lot of Hungarian family names are based on location. They basically translate to things like "Croatian Esther" and "German Andrew", or with village names. My phone is the same: I'm nomadic and people's names end up being where I know them from: "Steve Bangkok", "Nora London", "Maxine Cape Town"
