I didn't realise you intended creating individual name forums.
Though there are already Surname forums on Geneology.com and else where, having new ones on GenoPro could perhaps breathe new life into the research effort if the names were perhaps devided into national or continental categories.
My family is mostly from Scotland, but then went to such places as Australia and New Zealand, though there are branches and ancestors in several other countries.
Most of my more important research must be in Scotland between the 1600's and 1800's particularly in Fifeshire and Lanarkshire.
A lot of the information on later gererations depends on the generous contributions of various distant cousins around the world, some of whom have been most helpful, others, perhaps, are too busy to help (or just not interested in the family tree!)
The "Surname forums" from Genealogy.com limited to a single topic per surname. Messages are posted one after the other and cannot be easily organized. For instance, take a look at http://genforum.genealogy.com/morin/all.html, you will see it is difficult to maintain a conversation about a specific ancestor.
My idea is to have something better where users capable submit names directly to GenoPro.com from their family tree. Similairly, users could fetch surname information from the names already found in their family tree. I don't know all the details about the inner workings, but I have a pretty clear idea of what I want. I think people will use this feature. There is no such thing on the web at the moment.
