15. A data processing system configured to perform a search request for a name among a database including a plurality of names, the data processing system comprising: one or more computer processors; a database management system (DBMS) to receive the search request for the name; and one or more classification engines of the database management system (DBMS) which program the one or more computer processors to: evaluate the name to assign a first cultural classification as a preliminary cultural classification to the name, wherein the first cultural classification is selected from a plurality of cultural classifications, each encompassing a respective a plurality of cultural sub-classifications; determine a frequency distribution of the name for at least one country associated with at least one of the plurality of cultural sub-classifications; and evaluate the preliminary cultural classification associated with the name to assign a final cultural classification to the name, based on the determined frequency distribution of the name for the at least one country, wherein evaluating the preliminary cultural classification comprises: upon determining that only one cultural sub-classification of the plurality of cultural sub-classifications of the preliminary cultural classification is statistically significant, refining the preliminary cultural classification by assigning the one cultural sub-classification to the name as the final cultural classification to the name; upon determining that more than one cultural sub-classification of the plurality of cultural sub-classifications of the preliminary cultural classification is statistically significant, corroborating the preliminary cultural classification by assigning the preliminary cultural classification as the final cultural classification for the name; and upon determining that none of the plurality of cultural sub-classifications of the preliminary cultural classification are statistically significant and that more than one cultural sub-classification of a second cultural classification is statistically significant, overriding the preliminary cultural classification by assigning the second cultural classification to the name as the final cultural classification for the name; wherein the database management system (DBMS) completes the search request by searching for the name among the plurality of names within the database based on the final cultural classification assigned to the name.
