Fantasy Name Generator
Names for people, taverns, shops, settlements, ships, books, magic items and factions.
Free, original fantasy generator
Choose the details you need or leave them to chance. The interactive generator draws from CluelessDM's original handcrafted tables. No account is required.
This tool is part of the original eight-generator collection, built to give Dungeon Masters useful inspiration during preparation or play.
Using the Fantasy Name Generator
A believable fantasy name is often the quickest detail a Dungeon Master needs when players meet an unexpected person or ask about a place.
What can this name generator create?
Choose a mode for a character, tavern, shop, settlement, magic item, faction, ship, or book. Each mode exposes its own available options instead of using one generic pool of syllables for everything.
When should I use it?
Roll a merchant's name during a conversation, name a settlement while preparing a map, or generate titles for books and factions in campaign notes. Keep the results you like and roll again for alternatives.
