Regarding the name and type listing, there are a couple of minor problems and one major problem.

The minor problems are: 1, the generic merchant names will need to be split into their respective types, or multiples of the list will need to be generated for each type that is currently generic; and 2, the lists are so large that it will probably require some automation to add a suffix to each name.

The major problem is that the list needs to be in at least two languages, and probably three. This could be done by simple file substitution, but even if it's a simple file substitution, to do it right will require a bit of programming.
