Names for non-player characters

NPCs (non-player characters) are the innkeepers, guards, merchants and villains that the game master or the game itself controls, not the players. In a tabletop campaign, players ask for names all the time, and "the blacksmith" or "some guard" breaks the immersion. A ready list of names that fit the world lets you answer at once and keeps the story moving.

This generator creates medieval fantasy names for NPCs in D&D and other tabletop role-playing games, video games and stories. Choose the format (first name and surname, first name only, with a title or with a nickname) and the gender, and get 12 new names with every click. Surnames follow the old tradition of names based on trades, places and traits, like Stonehammer or Winterbottom. Write down a few names before each session so you always have one ready.
