Gatling Load test with Pareto principle on input feed

I'm using Gatling to load test a GET endpoint.

.../catByName?name=XYZ

In order to feed the load test with cat names, I have a CSV with the names.

Currently, there are four options to read the names from the file: Queue, Random, Shuffle, and Circular.

I like to better simulate real-life scenarios, that behave according to the long-tail and Pareto principle.

So I like that 20% of the names will be used in 80% of the requests and the other 80% of Names will be used in 20% of the requests.

Is there a way to do it?

Have 2 different feeders, one 4 times larger than the other one and a randomSwitch with 80/20 ratios.
