Welcome to EISEN, the word generator
 
Frequently Asked Questions about Eisen
 
Why such a similar name?
Eisen is one of the first names generated by... himself
When the project started?
22nd Fevrier 2006
What's the field Rule?
In this field you can write a regular expression to specify the type of name searched. For instance, it's quite bizare to have italian names ending with a consonant, so we can write the following regular expression "w*[aeiouAEIOU]$" (no quotes) to specify all the names ending with a vowel.
What's a regular expression?
Well, it's very well explained here regular-expressions.info.
Why only one regular expression?
It's an improvement prewied for the future. For the moment, just use the character '|' (pipe) to group many regex
Can you give me some pre-made regular expressions?
  • Words ending with vowel
    w*[aeiouAEIOU]$
  • Words ending with a,o
    "w*[aoAO]$"
  • All the names starting with (a,b,c,d,e,f,g) but not ending with W,A,B,C,D
    ^((A)(B)|(C)|(D)|(E)|(F)|(G)).*$(?<!(W|A|B|C|D))
  • Any string with characters repeated more than twice
    (.)\1{2,}
  • Any string with characters repeated exactly twice
    (.)\1{1,2}
  • Any string with character 'a' repeated exactly twice
    (a|A)\1{1,2}
How does it work?
Before generating a list of names, Eisen reads a big list of words and generates some statistics with it. Then it uses these statistics to generate its own words.
I got the error Maximum number of iterations reached. Stopping process, what does it mean?
If words generated by Eisen never match with the regex you passed, the loop stops after a predefined number of iterations.
