I don't know Native American names, but I guess the filter classifies their names as having too much entropy when compared to the other 1.1bn FB users.

1.1bn gives a pretty exhaustive list of common names for a given country region.

If the last name is a person with a Wikipedia entry then their pretty exhaustive list is not very exhaustive.
