How the Champions Name Generator works
A Champions name generator for superhero roleplaying with detailed, build-it-yourself heroes. In Champions-style games, heroes are built point by point, and each one has villains and organisations hunting them. Generate heroes, villains, government agencies, villain organisations and the hunters on a hero's trail.
How the Champions name generator works
Heroes get compound codenames like Kineticbolt, or a title and a noun like Captain Valor. Villains get grand, threatening names like Mega Warlord. Government agencies get official names and acronyms. Villain organisations get serpent and dark names. Hunters, the enemies who pursue a hero, get relentless titles like the Silent Tracker.
Every hero is hunted
Champions-style heroes often have enemies who track them. Naming those hunters early gives the campaign a ready-made subplot.

FAQ
What makes a good Champions hero name?
A codename that hints at the hero's powers, like Solarflash or Doctor Granite. Since every hero is built from scratch, the name can match any power set you design.
What is a hunter?
A hunter is a person or group that pursues a hero, like a government agency or a rival. It is a classic Champions-style disadvantage that gives heroes a recurring enemy.
How should a government agency be named?
Give it a long, official name and an acronym, like the Special Threat Division. Agencies can be allies, rivals or hunters, so a neutral name works in any role.
Can I use these in other superhero games?
Yes. The names are original and fit any superhero game, comic or story, whatever system you use, and the agencies and organisations work well as recurring factions in any hero campaign.
