I wanted to share how I come up with fantasy names because sometimes it can be hard to do so. Here’s a easy way to do it!

For an example, in my d&d campaign, one of my characters was a dragon. The dragon was the head of an arcane research institute, but turned out to be performing inhumane experiments on the residents of a city that supposedly fell to an earthquake, so I wanted her name to be draconic for “light in the darkness” (because on the one hand, light is often connected to knowledge and darkness to ignorance, on the other, sometimes a light in the darkness is connected to an angler fish).

So, let’s take the first word of that “light” and replace each letter with an adjacent letter on the keyboard

l -> k i -> o g -> t h -> y t -> r

Okay so now we’ve got “kotyr” I’m gonna stick an “i” on the end of it because I like the way it sounds, and boom! My character’s name is “Kotyri” You can assign pronunciation however you see fit, I went with koh-TEER-ee

If your character’s name doesn’t mean a specific phrase in some language, just take an aspect of them, for example, I once played a tiefling barbarian, and started with the word “brave”

b -> v r -> t a -> e (“a” and “e” don’t have vowels adjacent to them on the keyboard, so I generally just replace a’s with e’s and vice versa) v -> f e -> a

When a player rolls high on their check but they’re still suspicious

my brain: cockatiel barbarian

me:
