How the Starfinder Name Generator works
A Starfinder name generator for science-fantasy space games. Pick a core species, human, android, kasatha, lashunta, shirren, vesk or ysoki, and get names that fit a galaxy of starships, magic and alien cultures. For vessels and worlds, try the Starfinder ship name generator and the Starfinder planet name generator.
How the Starfinder name generator works
Humans get globally mixed first names and surnames, reflecting a far-future people from everywhere. Androids get a chosen single name, a serial number or a surname they picked for themselves. Kasatha, four-armed desert wanderers, get two-part names. Lashunta, the telepathic twin-species, get elegant, flowing names. Shirren, insect people who left a hive mind, get clicking names and sometimes their old hive. Vesk, the reptilian warrior people, get harsh names and military epithets. Ysoki, the small rat-folk tinkerers, get quick names and a nickname earned in the engine room.

FAQ
What do Starfinder names sound like?
It depends on the species. Humans sound like a mix of Earth cultures, vesk sound harsh and military, lashunta sound elegant, and ysoki sound quick and playful, often with a nickname.
How do androids get their names?
Androids in science-fantasy settings often choose their own names after awakening. The generator gives single chosen names, serial codes, or chosen names with a surname they picked for themselves.
Are these official names?
No. Every name is original and built from syllables and lists written for this site. They are designed to feel right in a Starfinder game without copying any published character.
Can I use these in other sci-fi games?
Yes. The names are original and fit any space opera or science-fantasy game with androids, reptilian warriors, insect people and rat-folk engineers, whatever system your table uses.
