    Greek

    Greek surnames are long because they stack suffixes. -poulos means "descendant of" and is typical of the Peloponnese (Papadopoulos, son of a priest). -akis is Cretan, -idis and -iadis are Pontic and Asia Minor, -atos is Ionian, -ellis from Lesbos. Papa- prefix means a priest ancestor. Women's surnames take a genitive form: Papadopoulos becomes Papadopoulou.

    Use the suffix to place the character's family: -akis for Crete, -idis for refugee families from Asia Minor. Female forms drop the final -s and shift the ending.
