Welcome to The Book of Fantasy Names, within this book you’ll find lists of Male and Female Forenames and Surnames for Elves, Dwarves, Humans, Orks, Halflings, Dragonborn, Gnomes, Tieflings, Aasimar, Tabaxi, Aarakocra, Genasi, Tritons, Warforged, Lizardfolk, and Golbins. Where the definitions do not apply the lists are different (for example Warforged do not have males and females, so there are just lists of Forename and Surnames for all Warforged).
While these are mainly Dungeons and Dragons Races, the names could still be used for similar races, so in Earthdawn T’skrang could use the Lizardfolk lists, or Windlings could use Halfling lists.
For Gamesmasters there’s a few extra lists, for Town Names, Tavern Names, Ale Names, Magic Weapon Names, and Ship Names. These are useful in play when you need a NPC, Place or Ship Name quickly, or for when you’re writing and you need to name every NPC so your players don’t work out who’s important and not.
These lists are all numbered 1-100, so if you need something quickly just roll a D/100 on the applicable tables, and you’ll get something you can use straight away.
We hope these are useful to you, and that they help your games and that you have a load of fun.
