How the FFXIV Name Generator works
An FFXIV name generator for Final Fantasy XIV characters and free companies. Each race type in the game has its own naming rules, from French-sounding tall elves and Japanese-sounding horned dragon-kin to the rhyming names of the small folk. Pick a race type to generate a first and last name, or generate names for your free company.
How the FFXIV name generator works
Humans get French and English names, Lucien Montclair. Tall elves get French given names and noble surnames, Aubert de Vallois. Small folk get playful doubled syllables, where the surname echoes the first name, Lolo Tata. Cat folk from the sun tribes get a single capital letter and an apostrophe before the given name, S'rhia Kholo. Sea giants get compound names built from sea words and old endings like wyb. Horned dragon-kin get Japanese given names and surnames. Rabbit folk get short names and a woodland family name, and lion folk get deep, rolling names. Free company names mix fantasy words with a company or caravan.
Race types, not trademarks
The generator describes each playable race by type so every name is original. Match the type to your character's race in the character creator.

FAQ
What are the name rules in FFXIV?
Final Fantasy XIV requires a first and last name, each at least two letters, with a combined limit of twenty characters. Names must be letters only, with an apostrophe or hyphen allowed, which is why the generator keeps names short.
How do small folk names work?
Small folk use repeated or rhyming syllables. A first name like Lolo pairs with a surname like Tata, or the syllables echo each other. It sounds cute and quick to say, which suits the cheerful little race perfectly.
Why do cat folk names start with a single letter?
Cat folk from the sun tribes put a single capital letter and an apostrophe before the given name, showing which clan they come from. The surname marks their place in the tribe, which the generator keeps short and original.
How do I name a free company?
Keep it short, since the tag shown next to member names is only five characters. Pick a strong name like the Starlit Caravan, then make a short tag from its initials or a sound, so members wear it proudly.
