[NR] Regional Names

[Etienne de St. Amaranth]

Could someone please open the website and copy and paste the current suggested names to me in a private email?

I do not have a Google account and don't really want to be forced to register one in order to be a part of this process.  The site does not show me any content other than a login screen.

Respectfully,
