Another name question! (sorry! ^^;.)

Back when I first unlocked PUP and went through the Automaton naming process I was blown away by the variety of options - I went for Herzog because it reminded me of an old game on the SEGA Genesis that I used to ace as a kid, Herzog Zwei, but there was a mountain of other options I probably would picked.. so, that being said; Did the Devs just scribble down a army of random names and pull them from the hat and chose those for the in-game list? or were all these names related to something irl?

One name I could call out from the list is Calcobrena, that was from FFIV.

Good day, Dawezy!

The puppetmaster stuff was a bit before me time, but there may be someone around who can remember how they chose the names. Almost certainly someone in localize named them, though, so I'll hit a couple people up.
