Simple name generator with custom phonetic patterns.
GenerateString(string pattern, string vowels = "", string consonants = "")
To generate a new string, call the Generator.GenerateString method, providing a pattern. The format of the pattern is simple, C for consonant, V for vowel. Spaces are permitted in the pattern. You can also supply a string of permitted vowels and/or consonants, as to restrict the letters available to give certain themes to names.
For example, here are 20 names and the pattern used:

Names return in lowercase by default, but if you wish to capitalise them, the following works great:
var result = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.TextInfo.ToTitleCase(result);
Hope you enjoy using this as much as I enjoyed making it.
