names-translator

That’s a small tool to generate as many possible transliteration options for ukrainian names First it translates the name into russian using dictionary, then transliterates ukrainian and russian names using translit-ua package and 19 different transliteration tables. Finally, some heuristic is applied to cover usual usual trasnliterations for well known names, which aren’t covered by the transliteration tables
