How the Vampire The Masquerade Name Generator works
A Vampire the Masquerade name generator for Kindred characters, sorted by clan type. In a gothic-punk World of Darkness, vampires hide among humans and split into clans with very different styles, from old-money aristocrats to street rebels and hidden monsters. Generate Kindred names, coteries and havens.
How the Vampire the Masquerade name generator works
Each clan type has its own voice. Aristocrats get grand Victorian names and titles like Prince of the Docks. Rebels get punk street names with a nickname in quotes. Artists get romantic names and an epithet like the Melancholy. Scholars get bookish names and titles about secrets and lore. Hidden monsters, too ugly to walk among humans, go by a nickname like the Rat King. Mystics get old-world names tied to a secret circle. Wanderers, who live on the road, get outdoorsy names. Coteries and havens fill in the rest.
Clan types, not clan names
The generator uses descriptive clan types rather than published clan names, so you can match each style to your chosen clan.

FAQ
What makes a good vampire name?
A good vampire name hints at the character's age and clan. Older vampires keep grand, old-fashioned names, while younger ones might go by a nickname from their mortal life. Many Kindred change names over centuries.
Why are there no clan names in the list?
Official clan names belong to the game's owner, so the generator describes each clan's style instead. Pick the type closest to your clan, such as Aristocrat for a ruling clan.
How do I name a coterie?
A coterie is a small group of vampires who work together. Pick a dark adjective and a group word, like the Velvet Salon or the Silent Choir, or name it after the city it haunts.
Can I use these for other vampire stories?
Yes. The names are original and fit any gothic or urban vampire story, from tabletop games to novels, video games and horror screenplays, and they suit vampire hunters and their victims too.
