Districts of Panem

There are twelve Districts of Panem, each of which provide a specific industry to the people of The Capitol. Of Panem's 25 million people, approximately 91% of them live within the districts.

Economics
Each of the districts are of drastically different economic status. While obviously there are both affluent and poverty-stricken residents of every district, each district's average citizen falls somewhere different on the economic chain. Typically (but not in all cases), lower-numbered districts tend to be wealthier than the more poverty-stricken higher-numbered districts.

Naming
Many of the districts have significantly different naming customs from other districts. Due to this, sometimes it is easy to point out which district someone is from simply by knowing their name. While not all of the districts have intricate customs, some do. As the industry of District 1 is luxury goods, it is very typical for residents to name their children after luxury goods, or other symbols of wealth and prestige. Some common names for girls include Silk, Gloss, Cashmere, and names of gemstones, while popular names for boys include Gold, Silver, and other expensive metals. District 2 has a very proud and fearsome culture, where names are meant to sound powerful and intimidating. Due to this, many residents name their children using either Greek or Roman names, commonly of gods or ancient warriors. Some common girl names include Athena, Diana, Artemisa, and Venus, while popular names for boys include Achilles, Dionysus, Zeus, and Poseidon. Over time, residents of District 10 have adopted Russian and Germanic-sounding names as their names of choice. Many residents of District 10 have Germanic-sounding surnames, which may explain the influence. Some common girls names include Helga, Katja, Luba, and Oxana, while popular names for boys include Oleg, Heinrich, Alfred, and Vladimir. As the industry of District 11 is agriculture, it is very common for residents to name their children after spices, trees, or other kinds of plants. Some common names for girls are Ginger, Nutmeg, Rue, and Anise, while common names for boys include Basil, Thresh, and Avens.
