Nominated! Nice quiz and nice format!

I would suggest accepting more formats of some names (Ioannis for John or Emmanouil for Manuel) since in Greek their names is more like it.

5 stars!

Great quiz! I agree with DwigtSchrute's comment that more forms of names should be accepted, but more romanized names such as Romanus for Romanos, etc.
