If you INSIST on doing it your way I’ll give you my code and you can copy it, as I know it works I’ll make some drop downs.
It’s not all of it cuz that shit 170000 words total, so I made it smaller.
Here are my stats

Maybe studying that and implementing working code will work? Or maybe you’ll take my code and use it in your own way. Whatever works. I’ll leave it here and you’ll figure it out I assume.
I also like to snoop, and see you already have a names topic so if someone with the power to merge them wants to it’s cool. Not the same question but both deal with names.
