Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built Fantasy Name Generator because every name generator I found
just spat out random syllables. "Xylania". "Dravor". Cool-sounding,
but empty — no meaning, no roots, no reason.
I wanted names that actually mean something. So every name here comes
with three things:
• Meaning — rooted in real linguistic traditions (Old Norse, Welsh,
Sanskrit, Akkadian, Old English, Latin, Greek and more), not copied
from existing fictional characters.
• Pronunciation — a readable guide, so you know how to actually say it.
• Lore — a story-ready role, so the name drops straight into your
novel, campaign, or game.
One thing I care about: names drawn from living traditions (jinn,
naga, kitsune, sphinx, banshee...) are researched and reviewed for
accuracy and respect — not flattened into stereotypes.
100+ generators covering fantasy races (dragons, elves, vampires,
demons...), D&D subraces, and places (kingdoms, cities, taverns,
ships). All free.
I'd love your feedback — what generators should I add next?

The pronunciation guides are genuinely helpful, and I love that every name has a real meaning pulled from actual linguistic roots instead of random syllable soup.

@ltfiyeksakg6v5 Thank you so much for the kind words! We put a lot of effort into ensuring that every name feels 'grounded' in real-world linguistics rather than just being a collection of random letters. Glad to hear the pronunciation guides are making a difference—our goal was to make sure these names aren't just cool to look at, but actually usable in your storytelling or world-building. Stay tuned for more linguistic updates!
