How the Mutants And Masterminds Name Generator works
A Mutants and Masterminds name generator for four-colour superhero roleplaying. In Mutants and Masterminds-style games, heroes with every kind of power protect cities from grand villains and sinister secret organisations. Generate heroes, villains, teams, secret organisations and hero cities.
How the Mutants and Masterminds name generator works
Heroes get compound codenames like Starguard or a title like the Invisible Phantom. Villains get a title and a menacing name, Baron Grimhold. Teams get patriotic group names like the Liberty Force. Secret organisations get sinister acronyms or shadowy names like the Iron Circle. Hero cities get grand names like Beacon City.
Four-colour style
The game celebrates classic comic books. Bold, bright names suit its heroes better than gritty ones.

FAQ
What makes a good hero name?
Combine a power word with a strong ending, like Voltstrike or Novawing, or use the pattern the adjective plus a noun, like the Silver Sentinel. It should be bold and easy to remember.
How should villains be named?
Villains love grand titles like Baron or Countess and dramatic names like Oblivion. The title makes them sound important, and the name tells you they are trouble.
Why name a secret organisation?
Big villain groups give a campaign a recurring threat. A sinister acronym like HAVOC or a name like the Black Lotus makes the group easy to recognise across many sessions.
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 hero cities make good settings for any four-colour campaign.
