Yes. But they are named by Nuance.
I have all the English Nuance voices on my PC using Window-eyes.
There are five, as I recall Samantha voices alone ranging
from compact to something like super high quality or some such.
Apple offers a choice of what Nuance has.
And, for my PC I still prefer the old Dec Access32.
Nothing clearer or more responsive.

Ah!
I'm not sure what you mean. Didn't Apple have to decide to include
those voices?
