  • Surnames occurring once are not published; absence from the dataset is not zero.
  • The publisher does not state whether the split is by a person's sex or by the grammatical gender of the surname form. The datasets are therefore neither summed nor compared numerically.
  • The male and female datasets are separate and are never summed.

  • The size of the list itself changes between editions, so beside the count we show the share of that edition's list (“1 in X”).
  • The people from Wikidata share the surname; that does not mean they are related to each other or to anyone. No date of death in Wikidata does not mean a person is living.
