Generating Sample Racial Names

We have added a new feature, mostly to help guides and new players who
are looking for inspiration for new names. Thus, we have created the
NAMEGEN verb. From HELP NAMES:
Syntax: NAMEGEN <race> <gender>
The 'namegen' command allows you to randomly generate sample names.
These are meant to be used for inspiration. Because of these names are
randomly generated, some may generated names may not be useful or
appropriate. This is meant as a tool to help players get a feel for a
race, and is not mandatory.
Certainly races aren't confined to their own native racial names. A
faeling may use an elfen or even loboshigaru name--who knows who raised
the faeling! Note that some racial names do not differentiate between
genders, notably dracnari, mugwump, lucidian and illithoid.
