namecombiner's Introduction

namecombiner

Python program to create married hybrid names.

My wife's last name is "Kindler," and years ago we tried to create the worst mash-up of her name with "Clark," part of my last name. We arrived at "Clardler."

Yesterday I learned that friends had unexpectedly wed, so I wanted to find all possible combinations of their names; hence, this program, which uses itertools.product to combine all possible beginning and ending strings from the two given names.
