This puzzle's semantic breakdown
Around "name" it's neither crowded nor empty: "names" leads at 0.737, the core circle is "names", "nickname", "moniker", and the top-10 mean is 0.591. Closing in takes a few rounds of probing.
From rank 1 to rank 100, similarity drops 0.362 (from 0.737 down to 0.375). That's a steep curve: a few top words dominate and the rest cool off fast — the signal is concentrated.
Don't overlook "surname" — a solid 0.581, yet tucked off the main "names" line. This kind of "doesn't-look-like-the-answer but is" word is frequently the pivotal move here.
