  abstract  = {This study introduces a statistical model able to generate variations of a
	proper name by taking into account the person to be mentioned, the discourse
	context and variation. The model relies on the REGnames corpus, a dataset with
	53,102 proper name references to 1,000 people in different discourse contexts.
	We evaluate the versions of our model from the perspective of how human writers
	produce proper names, and also how human readers process them. The corpus and
	the model are publicly available.},
