NAME GENERATOR

Character Name Generator — Names That Fit the Story

Generate character names by genre and register: fantasy, sci-fi, imperial, modern, gothic. Free in the browser, copy-ready.

A name does most of the characterisation before the reader meets anyone. This generator works by register rather than by random syllable: imperial names sound like a court, gothic names sound like an archive, and the two never mix.

What you get

By genre — fantasy, sci-fi, imperial court, gothic, modern, school.
With structure — given name, house/family, and an honorific or rank where the genre needs one.
Pronounceable — no consonant avalanches; names you would say out loud.
Set-friendly — generate a whole cast at once so the names sound like one world.
