The "-e" > "-иња" type is more common than the "-e" > "-a" type, I believe.

Yes, there are nouns whose gender doesn't match what you would expect from the last consonant, such as the feminine nouns ending in a consonant that I have represented in my table. There are indeed masculine nouns in "-o" and "-a" as well. The ones in "-o" are problematic, because in the singular, they take the neuter suffixes (e.g. "татко" > "таткото", "татконо", etc.) whereas in the plural, they have the "-oвци" suffix (e.g. "татко" > "татковци", "татковците", etc.). The ones in "-a", however, can simply use the template for regular feminine "-a" nouns.
