How the Roller Derby Name Generator works
This roller derby name generator makes skater names: puns such as Ruth Less, Bruise Lee and Malice in Wonderland, combinations such as Betty Knockout, optional jersey numbers, and team names for a league. Every name is a starting point to check against the derby name registers.
How the roller derby name generator works
Derby names are a tradition of the modern flat-track revival, which began in Austin, Texas, in the early 2000s. Skaters take a punny alter ego that mixes violence, glamour and wordplay, usually by bending a famous name, hence Bruise Lee or Malice in Wonderland. The generator offers ready-made puns and mix-and-match names, and pairs them with numbers, which can include letters and symbols in derby.
Checking your derby name is free
Derby names are meant to be unique. Skaters used to register them on the international Two Evils roster, and today many leagues use national or league-level lists, so search before you commit. Many skaters now use their real name, a trend that has grown since the mid-2010s, but a derby name is still part of the fun for most.

FAQ
How do I choose a roller derby name?
Pick something that reflects your personality, then twist it with a pun. Say it out loud, check it with your league and search existing derby name lists, because duplicate names are frowned on in the community.
Can roller derby numbers include letters?
Yes, within limits. WFTDA rules allow up to four characters, using digits, and many leagues allow letters too. Numbers must be unique within a team and legible on the jersey.
Do all roller derby skaters use derby names?
No. Derby names are traditional, but many skaters, particularly at elite level, now compete under their real names. Both are accepted, and leagues leave the choice to the skater.
