      Names for your next adventure

      Writing a story, running a tabletop role-playing game or naming a character in a video game? Pick a type and get twelve fresh names per click. Heroes, elves and dwarves can be female, male or mixed; dwarves get clan names like Stonebeard, wizards get titles, and you can even name the town and the tavern where it all begins.

      Names are built from syllables that fit each folk, so they sound right without copying any famous book or game. Star the ones you like – your favourites stay saved in your browser.
