    How to Pick the Right One

    • Match the vibe of your group. A grim table will not love Wobble the Unpaid, and a comedy table will fall asleep over Malachar the Unkind.
    • Say it out loud three times fast. If you trip over it, so will everyone else for the next fifty sessions.
    • Test it on a friend before you commit. Five seconds of their reaction tells you more than an hour of scrolling.
    • Check it still sounds good shortened. Most people end up using a nickname, so make sure the short version works too.
    • Skip anything tied to a current joke, trend, or meme. Inside jokes age fast and you will be stuck with the name long after the laugh dies.
    • Keep the spelling simple if you want people to type it into a chat or a bracket without asking how it is spelled every time.

    FAQ

    Can I use these for a non-DnD game or a group chat?

    Absolutely. They work anywhere a name needs a bit of magic, whether that is a tabletop game, a fantasy league, a server, or a wifi network.

    Should my wizard name match my class or school of magic?

    Only if you want it to. A name with fire imagery suits an evoker, but a calm, unassuming name on a pyromancer is a great joke that lasts all campaign.

    What if my name is already taken somewhere online?

    Swap one syllable, add an epithet, or change the spelling slightly. A small twist usually keeps the feel and makes it yours.

    Is it okay to mix two names from the lists?

    That is often how the best ones happen. Pull a first name from the classy list and a title from the savage list and see what survives.
