Why generate the random names on the server? That could just be done on the client, reduces load and is faster.


It's a pretty big list of names that I've scraped together.

There's barely and load on the server to generate the names and it only happens once for the new users so it wouldn't be worth putting that load on the client just for that one time, especially not with the traffic it's currently getting (currently around 1k users/day).
