Introduction
A Breton First Names Cube is a 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube used to display selected Breton First Names. In addition, the cube can be used as a Breton Word Composer and can display selected first names and words in many other languages. More than 1300 different first names or words can now be displayed on the cube.
Breton Language – Useful Links http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tro_Breizh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breton_language http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tudwal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brittany http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_founding_saints_of_Brittany http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_des_prénoms_bretons
There are Virtual Cubes that can be virtually rotated and twisted on a computer screen and Real Cubes that can only be physically rotated and twisted by hand. A Texture is laid down on a Virtual Cube whereas real Stickers are stuck down on a Real Cube. A Breton First Names Cube is designed by placing letters on a texture which is then laid down on a Virtual Cube (see http://www.randelshofer.ch/ for more details). Many Breton First Names can be displayed on a selected Cube face by rotating and twisting some parts of the Cube. When this has been achieved, we say that the Cube has been solved. In Brittany, many Breton First Names are also Town Names. For example: 'MALO' for 'SAINT-MALO', 'GWENOLE' for 'SAINT-GUENOLE', BRIEG for 'SAINT- BRIEUC', 'DINAN' for 'DINAN', 'VOLLON' for 'LANVOLON', 'LUNER' for SAINT-LUNAIRE', 'KADVAN' for 'CAVAN', etc…So, by learning some Breton First Names, we can also learn many Breton Town Names. This would make a 'Tour of Brittany' more enjoyable… The following example shows the initial state of the cube, where 'TRO BREIZH' is displayed on the front face. 'TRO' means 'Tour' and 'BREIZH' means 'Brittany', so 'TRO BREIZH' is simply a 'Tour of Brittany'.

Designing a Breton First Names Cube that works is definitely not a trivial task but Design Rules exist that should be applied. Because it is nearly impossible to test all configurations, the placement of numbers and letters on a texture should be carefully checked at the end of the design process. This is carried out by applying a Design Rules Check (DRC) in the final design stage. Breton First Names Cube Design 24.02.2009 http://www.mementoslangues.fr/ Breton Cubes Terminology

Cube Layout
In this particular design, all the preceeding Breton First Names can be displayed on a Cube.
After many attempts, the best layout that I have designed is as follows:
1- There should be much less letters on the Bottom Layer than on the Middle and Top Layers 2- Letters on the Bottom Right corner should be consonants and remain unchanged when 180° rotated 3- There should be a maximum of 3 blank corners displayed on a same solved Face 4- There should be a maximum of 2 blank edges displayed on a same solved Face
By applying these rules, we ensure that a maximum number of names can be displayed on a solved face.
Top Layer Layout
Top Layer KUB BREIZH TRO BREIZH BRO BREIZH
K U B T R O B R O
Letters on the Top Layer are sorted out as follows:
1- 8 Top Left letters on corner cubes: B, G, K, L, M, S, P, T, blank 2- 7 Top Center letters on edge cubes: A, E, O, R, U, W, Y 3- 9 Top Right letters on corner cubes: A, B, N, E, I, L, D, O, R
Letters are now logically combined on corner and edge cubes:
1- 3 Top Left corner cubes: (B,G,K), (L,M,S), (P,T,blank) 2- 3 Top Center edge cubes: (A,E), (O,R), (U,W) 3- 3 Top Right corner cubes: (A,B,N), (E,I,L), (D,O,R) 4- 1 Center edge cube with mixed letters: (Y Top Center,O Middle Left)
So, now there are 2 corner and 8 edge cubes left that can be used for the 2 remaining layers.
Middle Layer Layout
Middle Layer TRO BREIZH GWENGAL MERIADEG

Letters on the Middle Layer are sorted out as follows:
1- 9 Middle Left letters on edge cubes: A, E, B, I, L, U, V, W, O 2- 5 Middle Center letters on center cubes: A, G, N, O, R, blank 3- 5 Middle Right letters on edge cubes: A, E, D, N, L, blank
Letters are now logically combined on edge cubes:
1- 4 Middle Left edge cubes: (A,E), (B,I), (L,U), (V,W) 2- 3 Middle Right edge cubes: (A,E), (D,N), (L,blank)
So, now there are 2 corner and 1 edge cubes left that can be used for the Bottom Layer.
Breton First Names Cube Design 16/56 http://www.mementoslangues.fr/ Breton Cubes Bottom Layer Layout
Bottom Layer TRO BREIZH MERIADEG GWENOLE
I Z H E G E
Letters on the Bottom Layer are sorted out as follows:
1- 2 Bottom Left letters on 1 corner cube: E, L, blank 2- 1 Bottom Center letter on 1 edge cube: G, blank 3- 2 Bottom Right letters on 1 corner cube: H, N, blank
Letters are now logically combined on corner and edge cubes:
1- 1 Bottom Left corner cube: (E,L,blank) 2- 1 Bottom Center edge cube: (G,blank) 3- 1 Bottom Right corner cube: (H,N,blank)
Note 1 – Letters that are combined either on corner or edge cubes should be carefully selected. One good practice is not to combine letters that can be re-used either 90° or 180° rotated. For example, letters 'I' and 'N' should not be combined on a same cubie. Note 2 – When letters are logically grouped, it is very easy to swap 2 of them if a name cannot be displayed. For example, in an early design, Middle Left letters were grouped as {(A,B), (E,I), (L,U), (V,W)}. Then it appeared that the name 'GONERI' could not be displayed because letters 'E' and 'I' were on the same edge cube. The solution found was simply to swap letters 'B' and 'E' and use a new group {(A,E), (B,I), (L,U), (V,W)} that works. Note 3 – An 'N' on a Top Right Corner can be transformed into a 'Z' on a Top Left corner if it is redrawn. Conversely, an 'N' on a Top Left Corner can be transformed into a 'Z' on a Top Right corner if it is redrawn. This would lead to the addition of more letters to be used on 90° rotated cubies. Note 4 – Due to Cube symmetry properties, an 'H' or an 'N' on a Bottom Right corner cube is transformed into the same 'H' or 'N' on the opposite Top Left corner cube. In the same way, an 'N' on a Middle Right edge cube is transformed into the same 'N' on the opposite Middle Left edge cube. This applies equally to letters 'I', 'O' and 'X'. This would lead to the addtion of more letters to be used on 180° rotated cubes. Note 5 – There are only 3 blank corner cubes faces and 2 blank edge cube faces that can be displayed together on a same solved face. This means that First Names could be displayed only if there are at least 2 letters on edge cubes and 1 letter on a corner cube. So, check all 3-letter First Names against this rule and see if they can be displayed (DRC).
