Clan Tag name data
This is the whole grammar behind the Clan Tag Generator: 116 building blocks in 6 sets, assembled by 3 patterns, with a selection space of 2,796 combinations. Nothing is withheld and nothing is summarised: the lists below are the arrays the generator runs on.
Summary

Where these blocks came from
Own design. The consonant-vowel-consonant skeleton is the reason a built tag stays pronounceable instead of coming out as letter soup.
The building blocks
Four-letter words 40

Worked examples
Six names this generator produced, with the measurements the site shows next to every name. Syllables follow one published rule: count each run of vowel letters as one syllable, then subtract one for a silent trailing e when the word has more than one vowel group. The rule is approximate at the edges and deliberately simple, so anyone can apply it to any name here and get the same answer.

The generators this one shares naming conventions with, and how their block counts compare. A larger corpus is not a better one: clan tag names are assembled from 116 blocks in 6 sets, and a generator with fewer blocks in more sets can still reach a wider selection space.
