Names for the unmade. One race at a time.

How it works

Per-race logic, not a flat list.

Generic fantasy name generators tend to be one big bag of syllables run through the same blender. This one isn’t. Each race has its own naming convention, its own component structure, and its own weighted probabilities. Humans roll surnames and pact-status epithets. Ogres roll clans and earned deeds-names. Imps roll modifier+body-part epithets. Harpies roll translated poetic epithets when they’re named heroes.

The Common tier produces names for crew, NPCs, and the wider population. The Notable / Named tier shifts probabilities — rare epithets become more likely, surnames near-guaranteed, deeds-names common — so named characters actually sound like named characters.

Drift workshop

Inscribe your own names

Type any mortal-world name into the drift workshop. The engine applies the setting’s phonological rules and shows you which transformations fired. Inscribe the result to your pool and it joins future generations alongside the seed names.

Saved locally

Your sealed names and inscribed additions live in your browser. Multiple presets each get their own pool. Nothing leaves your device.

Etymology built in

Every generated name has an info button that shows per-component etymology — the original mortal name behind a drifted given, the meaning of a clan’s root, the literal translation of a poetic epithet.
