I'm working on a few d100 tables of names, last names and nicknames for an old west game.
The European names/last names are no issue, having trouble with the "native" ones and with the nicknames.

This is one I have used regularly as a source. The site has a lot of other useful info about the tribes while still being easy to use.
The names in the lists are of the 'given' type that a parent would give to a child, but should be good enough for gaming purposes.

No problem.
I was not sure if you are looking for typical 19th century American nicknames or the Wild West style nicknames.
Here are some standard ones: https://raogk.org/encyclopedia/nicknames/ (https://raogk.org/encyclopedia/nicknames/)
And here are a couple of random name generators that I have used for lots of games. Turns out they both have a Wild West category.

As for nicknames for any Banditos from your side of the border...I'll leave that to your expertise. ;)

Thanks again! I've been working on the nicknames but after a while my brain refuses to work.
