How the Cosmere Name Generator works
A Cosmere name generator for epic fantasy roleplaying in a connected universe of magic-rich worlds. The Cosmere-style RPG covers a storm-battered world of highlords and soldiers, a grey ash world of nobles and thieves, and the spirit companions that bond with heroes. Generate names for each.
How the Cosmere name generator works
Storm-world lords get long, formal names with stately surnames, and soldiers get short, blunt names with nicknames earned in battle. Ash-world nobles get aristocratic names with Lord or Lady, and street thieves go by short names and crew epithets. Spirit companions get soft, invented names made of two short parts.
Two worlds, two sounds
Storm-world names sound longer and more exotic. Ash-world names sound grey and European. Keeping the sounds distinct helps players tell where a character comes from.

FAQ
What do storm-world names sound like?
Long, formal and a little exotic for nobles, like Navesh Sadeshan, and short and blunt for soldiers, like Skar. The contrast shows the gap between lighteyed lords and common soldiers.
What do ash-world names sound like?
Grey and European, like Lady Allrianne Hasting for nobles and Dox or Clubs for thieves. The world is covered in ash, and its names feel old, formal and a little worn.
What are spirit companions?
In these stories, spirits bond with heroes and grant them power. The Spirit companion mode gives short, soft invented names that sound friendly and a little strange.
Can I use these in other epic fantasy games?
Yes. The names are original or common real names and fit any epic fantasy game or story, whatever system you use, especially settings with nobles, soldiers, thieves and magical companions.
