Proper names (people names) should not be submitted as vocabulary words.
“pawl” (a word found in the dictionary) would have been a great choice!
“paul” will not be included in the word list. I believe there are two proper names in the word list at this time, “yale” and one other. I am going to remove them also since it seems that they excuse more “exceptions”.
